Back from a 2-day bidness trip to Toledo, and though it went just fine, spending that much time in on-mode pretty well knocked me on my ass. Feeling sniffly and vaguely queasy from the flight, I staggered into the house and made instant tom yum ramen spiked with extra carrots, cabbage, zucchini, fish cake & thai meatballs. And then I watched Star Trek: The Next Generation, flipping channels to What Not To Wear during the commercials. Which helped, but I still felt el-crapola. And I have no herbal tea in the house. And no lemons with which to make a hot toddy. What I did have, though, is some Rose's Lime Juice, some fancy German honey, some Gosling's Spiced Rum, and a kettleful of hot water. The half-assed homemaker's last-minute toddy - yum yum.
