Default Sick day

my ear hurts, the glands under my tongue are swollen, I have big lumps on
either side of my larynx...and I'm tired as hell.

I got out my mom's teapot and I'm filling it with earl grey tea. I'm going to
bundle up, drink tea, eat my girlscout cookies and crochet the day away.

I'd make a loaf of bread in the machine but I'm out of bread flour and all I
have is a mysterious bag of self rising flour. How much damage could that
cause in a machine?

Celestial seasonings "Bengal Spice" tea.
Brew a cup strong, toss in a teaspoon of butter, 1 tbs. of lemon juice,
1 tbs. of honey and a shot of Myers Dark rum.

Seriously.

That is my "cure all" for viral infections. 2 days and about 6 of those
and I feel a helluva lot better. ;-)

Do what you know.
Experimenting when you are ill is a bad idea IMHO.

I'll feign illness related delirium
I made this
http://www.breadworld.com/recipes/re...tail.asp?id=51
with the last half cup of bread flour and self rising for the balance, I had
the wheat flour and whatnot. I hope it turns out, this bread is fantastic with
cherry jam.

I hope it turns out, too. It sounds really good. Will try it soon, though
I'll have to make it by hand.
