I put the garlic tonic I made last spring to the test today. I’m laid low with a febrile cold and was prompted to eat plenty of garlic to get healthy. I had forgotten about the tonic I had stashed away in the pantry, but Tod hadn’t.
I poured myself a shot and drank it at lunchtime. It tasted just like medicine; I’m sure it will do me some good.
Tod says that I will be “too stinky to be fit for cohabitation” so it’s a good thing he’s soon out the door to work. Perhaps I will be less garlic-scented when he comes home, but I suspect not. I plan to have some more tonic after my nap.

About garlic: I’ve used it to kill bugs and germs in my bod, but it also killed all the good ones - I got the runs. Now I eat lots of yogurt when I use it, to keep the good intestinal bugs intact.
Hoping your cold goes away soon!
Mmmm, garlic & yogurt. Sounds like we should have an Indian curry for dinner.

Posted by: Jenn on February 22, 2005 05:41 AMThe person who had garlic doesn’t notice the smell, but people arround him or her, who don’t have any garlic notice “TOO ???”. It depends on people how it smells.
Anyway after galic, having apples and some milk is effective.
