My husband was feeling kinda puney when he went to bed Saturday night, then woke up Sunday with a full blown cold. Praying that nasty cold will stay away from me. I'm popping Airborne and echinacea in hopes of saving myself.<br /><br />My mother likes anise stuff. I think I still have some anise oil in the cupboard I'd used to make hard candy for her. Man that stuff is potent. You do. It want your nose anywhere near the steam when you add it to a hot mixture. It'll singe your nose hairs and do who knows what to your brain.

These are around a few more days because they're nt as popular with the kids.<br /><br /> And thank you! Today is 100X better than yesterday.

It made fans out of people who weren't fans! lol<br /><br />Come one, come all. That's exactly how it is. But luckily, it's in shifts. I had janitor duty for the four days previous, then it was my turn, now I'm back on janitor duty. Thankfully, it's older kids now and they can run faster to the bathroom.

That might be different in Oregon, but in upstate NY, I'd have been hiding from whatever they made most likely.

And I totally sympathize, because with six kids here, stomach bugs were a come one, come all kind of party.<br /><br />I'm prepping for my Daycare Families Half-a-Superbowl party tomorrow evening, and there are four big chuck roasts slow cooking in my oven. I am in beef overload right now! <br /><br />And Ree Drummond's Apple Dumplings, the ones soaked in butter and Mountain Dew, who thinks these things up???<br /><br />Looking forward to the food, and the commercials and cute kids. Get well, Fresh Pioneer!
