My throat/nose/cough are still killing me. The shop went out for excellent authentic Mexican food at Las Cazuelas (in Philly) yesterday, and I had lovely delusions of all that bright citrus and cilantro vitamin C punching whatever this is in the nose, but it doesn't seem to have worked out quite that way. :)
I have to say, the best ginger-lemon-honey syrup I've ever had was far and away
math5's, but if you don't have access to hers then
this Ginger Soother stuff (hot, of course!) is brilliant. I would be chugging it today, except I ran out last night. WOE.
Also, I'm hugely excited to go play dance music all day and all night tomorrow at Northpass, but WHY WHY WHY did it have to wind up opposite Crown Tourney right in my own backyard? So bummed, especially because I was so out of it last weekend... although I suppose at this rate, I might be just as out of it tomorrow. Hee. Beware the spacey ailing musician and her borrowed hurdy-gurdy that she has no idea how to play! Mwahahahaha!!!
In other news, I have the funniest, cleverest monkey baby in the whole world. Quote post coming as soon as I feel articulate enough to do her personality justice... although actually I might never achieve that level. Soon, anyway. :)
ETA: Hey, some of you might remember the recent Makeup Bag Fiasco, in which the rattiness and raggedness of my decrepit old pouch were inadvertently revealed to the world at large. Oops. :) Last week I replaced that thing with
this, which I am much pleased with. It came from
HautTotes on Etsy; her larger bags tend to be a bit bright and graphic for my taste, but she's currently got the same pouch up in black or dark red, and a similar long skinny version in brown intended specifically for knitting needles! I got my bag within three days of ordering, so I think her "two week production time" notice is a just in case kind of thing.
