I've been sniffling and coughing now for the past 5 days or so and I'm over it.  I'm doing my best to get well and I've been inhaling soup and hot tea and all those concoctions that are sure to put you on the mend.  One of my favorite new get well remedies is hot lemonade...courtesy of my mother (don't mothers always have the best ideas?).  If you aren't feeling quite up to snuff or just want a warm sip of something, try some hot lemonade. (Confession: I warm up Publix deli lemonade in the microwave, but if I wasn't sick and had more energy, I'd try this recipe below)

I've been documenting a lot of our cooking adventures since we've been married and I'm pretty proud of some of the meals I've pulled together.  Admittedly nothing has been particularly complicated but I like to think I make the most of the presentation! I've linked to some of the recipes below--enjoy!
