Hey Gary, take care of that cold hey. Old grandmother remedies are the best. Herbal teas with some honey and lemon and two spoons of either whiskey, cognac or rum, should do the trick. Don’t drink alcohol as if you’re on meds such as extra strength tylenol or aspirin, the two don’t really mix well. You could also warm up some milk and add a spoon of molasses and if your stomach is not too woozy mix it up with oatmeal. The trick is to drinking a lot of fluids and resting and not over tiring yourself and to keep warm. Home made soups are good too when your sick and before going to bed you can take NEO CITRON, stuff like this and VIx VAPORUB and rub it on your chest and throat and if your sinus are congested at the bottom of nose (nostrils). If your not on meds a good cognac can’t hurt. Take care of yourself, pamper yourself, take a warm bath you know but remember to keep warm, hope you feel better soon 🙂

Get well soon, Gary!
Of course the best thing to drink when you’re sick is what your mother gave you when you were sick as a child. For me, that would be peppermint tea, or even better, half peppermint, half camomile.

Sorry to hear you are sick!
For an upset stomach from the flu, I like to drink icy cold ginger ale. The colder the better with lots of shards of ice. Generally I suck on the ginger ale coated shards of ice and then try to sip the ginger ale.
Feel better soon!
P.S.: Love your show!

When Gary gets too sick to be able to twitter, that’s when I’d be concerned.

Trust me, like I trust you …. You will be out and rockin’ in 48hrs!
Pray, Rest, if you have congestion get to the shore for some salt air to clear up your head, drink All Natural Thrist Quencher loaded with electrolytes( like a Healthy Gatorade ) – called Recharge like you drink wine … I actually keep my fridge stocked with all flavors ( orange & Grape are the best ) good for the morning after a WINE Night! Stay hydrated! and drink 1 gallon water a day!
Local honey ( both from your lady & the bees )
No Work! No adult wine, just drink Recharge GRAPE! Turn off the computer, cell phones and lock the doors!
Try to stay away from over the counter meds … they prolong the sickness … go homeopathic with products by BOIRON … fast relief and $6 – $10 each …
BIJA organic tea – Cold Stop Tea
and the best thing to eat is Alaskan SALMON! Loaded with Omega oils!
And the most important: Like Ma always said “get your hands out of your nose” and “Carry hand sanitizer wherever you go, and USE IT!”

Get better soon! I’m REALLY enjoying the show and have emailed numerous wine-enjoying friends of mine with the Wine Library website.
QOTD: decaffinated hot tea with honey, possibly a little warm flat 7-up, and a ton of NyQuil!
I forgot the key and most important way to get you back, because we need Our Supreme Vayniac back in the twitter …. soon …. but healthy!
Get a new filter for your Heating & Air Filtration System! at work & home! Change it monthly! It’s worth the drive to Home Depot! Buy a 6 pack!
We all need good clean air flow!
And get some of your Gram’s chicken soup that she tasted for us!
See you soon …. ~*Salute!*~

Gatorade. And water.
My father in law gave me a shot of honey brandy one time. I think it almost made me blind.

Sleep in GV. I’m sure you do it once every 3 years. I like to drink OJ with oyster crackers in it. Gross, I know. But it makes me feel better. And I have to say that when I’m sick, I run back to beer. Canadian persuasion. Clears me up.

You are wearing yourself thin! Slow down. I’ve always wondered and blogged about professional wine and food critics and what they do when they get sick because they can’t taste anything. It is the equivalent of a movie critic going temporarily blind and not being able watch a flick. Can one actually give an honest review of a wine with all its subtlties with a cold? Tough one. Feel better!!
I drink tons and tons of airborne and Emergent-C (this stuff really works) when I feel even the twinge of a cold coming on and I vitamin up as well. Usually I start feeling my glands in my neck tighten and I attack it right away. It just happened to me yesterday and I’m getting panicked b/c I’m going the NY Wine Experience this week and I don’t want to have it ruined by a cold.
So far so good. It is working. Plus, plenty of sleep and absolutely NO ALCOHOL. It is the worst thing for a cold or sickness. It beats up the weakened immune system and dehydrates you as well.
