I'm starting to fee...Thank you for the well-wishes. I'm starting to feel better, slowly but surely...just "stuffy/runny" now. <BR/><BR/>You can imagine my chagrin when I poked around in my needs-to-be-organized tea cupboard, and found that I am completely out of chamomile, bagged or loose. I've been trying to get by with my rooibos, mint, and ginseng teas, but nothing cures the stuffiness like a good cup of chamomile (I actually use it for allergy relief). <BR/><BR/>But an Adagio order was delivered today, and I forgot I had ordered a sample of Foxtrot - rooibos, mint and chamomile blend when I placed this particular order. So I'll have chamomile tonight, and probably much happier sinuses. <BR/><BR/>Here's to health through tea!Jamie D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05486427517423813962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1883727182436142525.post-42425993009389261372007-07-05T15:45:00.000-06:002007-07-05T15:45:00.000-06:00So sorry to hear you're not feeling well.

Isn't it great how tea provides us so many options even when we feel lousy?<BR/><BR/>Rest up...jewellspringhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14998747657163754087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1883727182436142525.post-36922405621515926012007-07-05T14:33:00.000-06:002007-07-05T14:33:00.000-06:00Sorry about the head cold, and in the summer too! ...Sorry about the head cold, and in the summer too! I find that they are just the worst! I just plain LOVE tea too. Loose leaf tea is what I live for, and I also study in my spare time medicinal herbal tea's. There's a wonderful store in Toronto that has an herbologist there. They always say how important it is to see a family doctor; and then use herbal infusions in addition too. I love Rooibos when my stomach feels a little off, and I put peppermint or spearamint into some of my green tea for added freshness. Hibiscus flowers are a great source of vitamin C as well. Great for head colds! My favourite tea at the moment is Chai with extra cinnamon and freshly ground cardamom.<BR/>Take care, and I hope you feel better soon<BR/>MelanieChameleon girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15228347997884639901noreply@blogger.com
