Default Soup for dinner.

Angela is sick again. Sore throat and slightly stuffy nose. I think she is
getting a cold. I remembered the Cold FX that I bought last year. It's a
Canadian product. I heard that it worked really well so I bought some on
Ebay. Didn't seem to help us last year, but I thought I would try it again.
She has had two doses of that and also two doses of Airborne. The berry
flavor actually tastes good!

I had meant to buy some red bell pepper last night when I stopped at the
store. But I forgot. Bell pepper is great for a sore throat and the red
seems to work the best. We were going to go to the store again today
(different store for different things) but never made it out of the house.
She was just too sick.

I am making a big pot of chicken soup. Then I remembered the freeze dried
red bell pepper I have in the cupboard. I added some to the soup and
hopefully it will work. She looked in the pot but didn't comment on
anything red. She did comment on the amount of green. I had no fresh
celery or parsley so added dried and it is all floating on the top.

She said her throat feels some better. I felt like I was starting to come
down with it so took some Airborne. Sometimes it works for me. Sometimes
not. I just went back to bed and slept. Nose is just slightly stuffy but
other than that don't feel sick. Soup should be ready soon!
