Has it hit you yet?
Sickness, that is.
It hit me this week. For two days all I did was sleep.
Luckily this week was a group class week rather than a regular lesson schedule week – which always seems easier to make up. My policy is that if I cancel, I will do my best to make-up but there are no guarantees and I can cancel one lesson during the year without making it up.
Luckily we’re talking head-cold here, not the flu so my best friend has been DayQuil and Kleenex.
Cool Touch and Vick’s are my fav.
Catch more of my cold-care and studio germ-busting tips here.
I’ve been so caught up in being sick that I practically forgot today is Valentine’s day, happy Valentine’s my friends!

Kitchn writer Elizabeth Licata wrote an article on how she ate like a member of the royal family for a week. One of the items mentioned was the Queen’s favorite strawberry jam.
You can get it on Amazon so OF COURSE, I had to try it, right? Totally yum, but I wouldn’t pay $12 on a regular basis for a jar of jam.
My nephews were here one night so we had breakfast for dinner including toast with the Queen’s jam. Fun! 🙂
