Good for what ails you.

If, like me, you are currently coughing and sniffling and feeling thoroughly not-great, here's a little home remedy I just made up. Into a regular-sized drinking glass, pour:
One part brandy (I like Korbel, but that's just me).
Juice from one key lime (or half of a regular lime, but key limes are best).
A spoonful of honey.
Three parts boiling water.
Stir well and sip. It's not only soothing, it's surprisingly tasty. My particular mixture's probably already been invented, but whatever it's name is, it should be called an Otter Toddy, so that's what I'm calling it. Mmm, Otter Toddy.

(I should add that watching episodes of 'The Raccoons' while sipping an Otter Toddy greatly increases its therapeutic value.)
