What To Do When Coming Down With A Cold

The best thing for a cold is lots of fluids, chicken soup, a stack of Somerset Mags and lots of naps cuddled up with your best buddy :) I came home with a sore throat, and the I don't feel so

good :(

Now all I want to do is climb into bed with a Somerset Studio and let LW fend off the world for me ;)

Have an audacious day or evening my bloglandian neighbors depending on where in the world you are ;)

Then sleep. Drink this every 4-6 hours.; January 29, 2009 at 11:09 PM

The Velveteen Rabbit

What is REAL?" asked the Rabbit one day, when they were lying side by side near the nursery fender, before Nana came to tidy the room. "Does it mean having things that buzz inside you and a stick-out handle?"
"Real isn't how you are made," said the Skin Horse. "It's a thing that happens to you. When a child loves you for a long, long time, not just to play with, but REALLY loves you, then you become Real."
"Does it hurt?" asked the Rabbit.
"Sometimes," said the Skin Horse, for he was always truthful. "When you are Real you don't mind being hurt."
"Does it happen all at once, like being wound up," he asked, "or bit by bit?"
"It doesn't happen all at once," said the Skin Horse. "You become. It takes a long time. That's why it doesn't happen often to people who break easily, or have sharp edges, or who have to be carefully kept. Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in your joints and very shabby. But these things don't matter at all, because once you are Real you can't be ugly, except to people who don't understand."
