There is a Scottish/Irish song called "When Sick, Is it Tea you want?" I love this song, even though I am not good at playing it; especially when sick! However, I am no writing because I am sick currently and am craving a good cup of tea, rather I am writing about something I think is totally off topic and really kind of funny!
When I am sick, I crave a good cup of tea, a quiet room, a good book and RICOLA! Lots and lots of RICOLA! Okay, so I am sure you are now hearing the Alpine horns and the Swiss man yelling out "RIIIIICCCCOOOOLLLLLAAAAAA" yeah, I am too! There is just something soothing in that blend of Alpine herbs that helps soothe my cough, my throat and my mind.
Most Americans skip right over this "natural" product and go straight for the chemical tasting Halls Menthol drops. Why? Seriously? Yes, I have had these drops, when I was younger! But from day one when I first laid eyes on the yellow and white package of Ricola, the imported from Switzerland title, I knew I had found my "cure-all!" Nothing can touch the feeling that I have after a Ricola. My throat soothed, my cough vanquished for at least 30 mins. I am a nearly new person!
Now I am not pushing an ad for Ricola, matter of fact, the company doesn't even know I am writing this, but I must say while "yes, it is tea I want when I am sick...also pass me the Ricola!"
