ah, medicina tradicional folklórica

My father would warm up beer in a pan. Yuck!

I once had dengue fever as a teenager. My mother upon the advice of my grandmother gave me pigeon soup. Then instead of going to the doctor I was taken to the local pharmacist. Upon arriving there the fever had broke. Maybe those old remedies work.

Oh well.

all this caused by too much book reading should go out and play outside once in a while

If it’s a cold or flu, chicken soup may be the best remedy.

When I was 6 or 7 I once had a cough. Dad filled a small glass with a clear liquid and told me to drink it. He didn’t tell me, but it was straight tequila. I gulped it down and felt the burn. I haven’t touched tequila since.

Don’t forget the kosher chicken Tia Carmen… has to be kosher to make medicinal soup
