Earl Grey tea, two sugars, soy milk, and Ginger Nuts.
Just going to have a chicken curry with the trimmings, and my usual red wine. Lovely.
Water, water and more water. It seems that is all I am able to have these days. :bawling:
Why? :(Quote:

Winterhook. Also the TV is on. I don't know what the program is b/c husband was watching it and I just joined him in here. From what I gather it's about what it means to drink in Ireland - it's some kind of FUN documentary - maybe it's fun for the host, who is supposed to be waking from a hangover after a night of tall glasses of Guiness and lots of Irish whiskey. And he goes off to breakfast for Irish whiskey...
Maple walnut ice cream with a diced up banana. ooh is this good. :D
I've got "issues" with my body at the moment. So I think water is my best substitute for beverages. Seriously, it is getting pretty tiresome. :(Quote:

Can't you drink herbal tea? I drink herb tea all the time. I like ginsing, chamomile (good for stomach problems), perpermint, Paul d'Arco, apple cinnamin tea, and others - even tried sassparillo; you know about cowboy movies and sassparillo, don't you? They also have some teas that taste similar to coffee. I have even iced the herb teas - they're great that way.Quote:

You can buy it at Acme or online. I also crush that Prelief with a wooden pestal (think that is what is it called - to crush up herbs, nuts, etc.) Then I add that to my coffee or cappucino, while still hot. It helps I think, although my concern is my bladder; but also I have had indigestion problems. I take Prevacid for that now, so I am ok. The Prelief mixes up the best in soda. It fizzes a lot so you have to put one in at a time. I use about 4 in a bottle of soda but then I need it really deaccidified.Quote:

That does sound good, although I am not crazy over maple syrup - is that the flavor? I would like the ice-cream part. I love ice-cream!:thumbs_upQuote:

Thanks for the suggestions, but I don't like tea. I don't like coffee either. :sick: So none of it is going to make this journey any easier. But thanks! :) And yes, I do know what the cowboy drink is. :D How did it taste? I had the soda version of it. You know, the way that it was originally made? It wasn't bad at all.Quote:

Yeah, I have heard that about caffeine. Maybe that is also why I am feeling somewhat less active. Who knows? I should look into the different things that you named, though.Quote:

But you don't taste the Prelief or Prevacid when you crush it like that?
Yes that's a flavor. Friendlies Ice Cream makes it. It's a soft maple flavor, not over done. Very nice.Quote:
