I make something similar but it includes Chinese cooking wine and oyster sauce, both which impart a unique flavour. As usual, I'm getting hungry!
 
What?! Oh Nooooo! I will miss your recipes! Sorry to hear you have been unwell - hope you recover well and quickly! Selfish me thinks no because I have loved your recipes but I'm quite sure you have contributed much time and energy with your posts. Thank you so much Suzanne Rose! x

This is an old recipe! I've been accused of this being an old wives tale, but believe me it works, Cut a few lemons up rind and all and simply boil the guts out of them while using as much sugar and honey as you like? Drink it as hot as you can with a couple panadene or something similar just before going to bed. You should feel a bit better from day one, as a fun fact most sceptical became the more agreeable. Hope this works if you decide it's worth a try!

I have put alot of time and thought into each recipe I post but I saw there were way to many recipes being posted .
I felt other people need to have the opportunity to post recipes without them being loss.
I've been trying out some great recipes today . Anyone who wants me to I more than happy to message direct on here the recipes twice a week.

I'm a little tired of snarky comments.

I'm so glad that you and many others that have been messaging me, loved the recipes I have posted and appreciated them 😊

My Grandmother used to do similar until she found lemsip.
I'm now feeling much better , after more than 2 weeks. I've had covid twice and this flu was much much worse.
Two lots of antibiotics and a course of prednisone has worked .

I will keep this recipe for future flu's 😋

I feel the same as you. I've posted recipes that I cook, and feel fed up reading snarky comments directed to ones that actually post recipes.

I personally would love to see more of your recipes and Bullwinkles and other homecooks that have actually cooked the recipes. Not just pist a random recipe

I just made another new quiche recipe, fingers buns that turned out exactly how I had them at school and a a batch of raspberry abd cheesecake buns which I haven't tried yet but the smell is saying it all.

I'm cooking lamb shanks with lemon and fetta in a sauce , that's for tomorrow.

And lastly a spinach and fetta slice made with my own pastry.

Yep, I'm in a cooking mood 🙂

(I'm a little tired of snarky comments.) Unfortunately that even here on this forum you will find ignorant arseholes coming out with idiotic comments, there is one to remember the old saw. Those that can do, those that can't ridicule/preach or teach!!!. With the loss of your continuous participation will ultimately have an impact, which in itself is a shame.

I will still be commenting on post just not posting recipes . All these recipes of mine that are going up are from before.

You are so correct and I thought the older we got the more compassionate we were got.

It's ok to disagree, to have an opion ect. People just need to respect 🙏

That looks yum. Thanks for your support. Actually, I haven't had time to bake lately, as I've been helping my mother with stuff that's needed. When I do, I probably will.

I actually have thought people don't change their personalities even if they are older ... except for dementia. I call it manners, although I must be old school.
