You know -- never mind; These instructions are for something else.
I can't remember the name of this stuff, but my sister-in-law swears by it -- it's stuff that you take when you feel the very beginnings of a cold and it manages to kill most of the problem. It's useful for plane trips, and airports and all that. When we came back from the Cruise, the spouse and I got sick, the sister-in-law didn't because she used this stuff. Worth checking out if you're going anywhere these days.
That could be it. I've asked my sister-in-law because I can't remember for sure, but if that's not the name of it, I have heard of Airborne and it's similar. The stuff my SIL uses is from Trader Joe's I think. (Of course, my memory being what it is ...)
Oh, sorry to hear that. But now that you're home I can ask the recipe look-up question I've been sitting on all week. I'd like to make a Sacher Torte in about two weeks. It needs to be both wheat free and sugar free. The wheat was the easy part. I'd like the sugar substitute to be fruit of some kind, not man made chemicals. Got any suggestions/recipes?
