OK, magic brew, kick in

Weeks of dodging the colds of coworkers and friends and days of long hours of work followed by short hours of sleep. It’s all trying to catch up to me today, I think. I’m feeling a little run down and congested and am doing a little of that lung-clearing thing.

Ha! Little does it know that I have a secret weapon! That’s right! A week ago on Sunday I made eight quarts of homemade chicken stock. Tonight’s dinner was dumplings cooked in a quart of said elixir. Powerful mojo, that homemade chicken stock.

Take that, foul virus! You won’t get me! Muahahaha!
