    Cold/flu tea
    Here is what this sick witch cooks up when sick

    Ingredients
    3 cups of water
    Juice of half a lemon
    1 cinnamon stick
    3 slices (1/4 inch thick) of fresh ginger
    ¼ tsp cloves
    ½ tbsp. turmeric
    1 pinch cayenne (start with this and add more to taste…the more you can handle the better)
    1 ½ tbsp raw honey (can add more or less to achieve desired sweetness)

    Directions
    1. Add all ingredients (except honey) to a pot and bring to a boil.

    2. Once boiling reduce heat and let simmer for about 10 minutes.

    3. Add honey and stir, adding more if necessary.

    4. Pour tea through a strainer and drink while warm.

    With October being prime rim-to rim season, here is something on the North Kaibab Trail in an excerpt from Seth Muller’s Canyon Crossing: Stories from Grand Canyon Rim to Rim: “The trail in the Redwall Limestone was hewn from solid rock in half-tunnel sections using explosives, portable drills, and jackhammers … (and) clings to the 500-foot cliffs of the western wall of Roaring Springs Canyon.” https://www.grandcanyon.org/shop/online-store/canyon-crossing-experiencing-grand-canyon-rim-rim-seth-muller

    Hmmm, I probably would take the bus. Hate to move a cat when they are comfy. :). I’ve never named my cars…never even occurred to me. I love the way they named houses in the old days, but I’ve never done that either.

    Good morning KJ & Deb. Cats and cars pics rock.
    I have the “Car 54 Where Are You” theme is rolling around my head! Does anyone remember Saturday Night Live’s “Toonces, The Driving Cat” skit?
    Ok, time to see if I can get thru the day. Have a great day, TDKr’s!

    OMG! I remember Car 54, and the SNL ‘Toonces’! ……. hahahaha!

    …. great pics today! ….. If I could easily put my finger on it, I have a pic of Venus (Son’s cat) riding on the dashboard the the Uhaul truck, when Mr. AV and he drove him up to NYC …. so funny! She just ‘didn’t want to miss a thing’! LOL

    …. another busy day here, more rain on the way ….. weather guys report possible cool down this weekend, so I’m looking forward to my first day of ‘walk out and feel like fall’ …… can’t wait!

    …. grabbing a final cuppa, and headed back in …. check you all later! (Joan, you can make it, we’re all here behind you 🙂 )

    Car 54 where are youuuu -yes, remember from when was a kid too!
    No car names except my mom’s first car – she learned to drive later as when we were little. Older black Plymouth as “Dobbin”…don’t remember why the nickname tho!
    Hey Joan, better days, ahead. Waves to Ecb, Av & Deb. KJ – hope you’re feeling better – maybe try Deb’s cold remedy recipe!

    Well, it’s gonna be a purrfect Thursday…café kits are all purring – luv the sound as kitteh chorus 😉

    Ordered a refurbished Airocide air purifier this morning, pricey even then but if it helps me sleep at night I am all for it….refurbished was $499 vs $799 and has the same guarantee as the new one. Supposed to take in all the pet dander and other pollutants from the air, going to put it in my bedroom, crossing my fingers it helps.

    Went to see Gone with the Wind on the big screen last night, I have never watched the movie and thought it was good. Lynn and Natalie enjoyed it even after watching the movie multiple times thru the years. Didn’t seem like it was a four hour movie either.

    Well this is the exciting world of my one full day off for this week, I love working midnights but the days off are strange I admit. Get off Wednesday mornings and its an off and on napping most of the day, Thursday is the only full day off because I have to be back to work Friday night at midnight…goofy isn’t it.

    Right-o! Tks Deb, don’t have all ingredients on hand but might try adapt of cold remedy as if it helps one sick witch it should surely help another as this one! A bit better as 7 days cold-staying time will arrive in a few, but not 100% as yet, would settle for my usual 90% or so LOL.
    And now Mr. Fix-It must make return visit as was not just shower head but thing inside, cartridge or whatchamacallit, dripping even more now, and landlord tried to give me grief re 2nd visit needed, but compared to calling in a plumber my guy is way cheaper. Not end of world, a bit annoying and might have to wait for new part, heigh-ho!
    Rushing out to appt having just rushed in so will love you all and leave you ’til L8R!

    I LOVE SIMON!!!!

    And back from my hair appointment and I LOVE my hair again! She and I had a long discussion, and it’s still short, no more short layers, and will soon be an inverted bob, almost there now. I have COLOR, brown, blonde, and caramel and just the right touch for fall!! I love the way I feel after my hair gets done, wish I could make it look the same but I almost can, afterall I’m working on my own head, not someone else’s, but at least I don’t have hair I hate.

    Will check in later as I need to put some stuff in the oven for later!
