Still Alive

Hello! I'm still a little sick..but am feeling tons better! I haven't been out of my house yet, but I am going to try to venture out into the great outdoors tomorrow for some fresh air! I start work again Friday, so I better get 100% by then!
I'm pretty much back to eating normally again. I had this awesome, light dinner tonight, courtesy of Whole Foods. Quick Hummus- and Vegetable-Stuffed Pitas

This recipe was great because I didn't have to cook, and it was a light meal, easy on my stomach :) I also had a HUGE glass of ginger ale. Been so addicted to it lately.
Just finishing off season 1 of Gossip Girl :) Love that show.

My throat is still achy and scratchy. Does anyone have any good home remedies for this? I have been drinking tons of tea with honey and it doesn't seem to be helping at all :( The sore throat was one of the worst things about this illness. So any suggestions ould be greatly appreciated!

I'm off to have a nice,warm bubble bath and finish the last 2 episodes of Gossip Girl :)
