rainbow sherbet

jamie shows us how to make chaider

I caught the bug. Uggh! I thought I was going to be one of the lucky few that didn't get sick, because I practically never get sick, but I guess that's life. I'm going to fight this bugger like there's no tomorrow! With tea, airborne, vitamin D, naps, tons of water, and maybe some cartoons (i.e. The Simpsons) to make me feel like a little kid again.

I remember, whenever I had a sore throat as a child, my Mom would give me rainbow sherbet with sprite poured on top. The sherbet cooled and soothed my throat, and sprite's bubblies worked wonders on an upset tummy. Did anyone else ever have this combo? I didn't have it too often, but I'm sure I would have faked being sick all the time if that was the case! Just kidding...I was a good kid. :)

  1. Aw Michelle--hope you feel better! Rainbow sherbet is such a childhood classic. I always drank ginger ale ("Canada Dry" brand!) when I was little to help my sick self. It felt like such a treat since I never drank soda :O

    Get well soon & rest up!

    That sherbet/sprite combo sounds fantastic! I've never heard of it. I remember always eating potatoes when I was sick as a little kid.
