Assaulting a Sore Throat
My brother emailed me a link that very well could have the cure for a sore throat. http://www.myfinancialjourney.com/archive/frugal-cure-for-a-sore-throat is the URL if you care to read up on it. Anyway, being the little seester and having undergone unjust tortures by him in my childhood, I could imagine this "cure" might be a little fun for him. Realistically though it is hard to imagine any germ surviving this kind of assault.
I used a standard souvenir-sized coffee cup filled with water microwaved on high for one minute. Add to that two pinches of salt and one teaspoon cayenne pepper. Stir well and stir between mouthfuls. I gargled each mouthful about 8 to 10 seconds right before throwing up could occur. Despite my stirring efforts, you can't prepare yourself for that last mouthful. I don't think I gargled that as long since I immediately started heaving and snotting profusely. After that, I rinsed out my mouth with fresh water and without gargling so the cayenne pepper could sit at the back of the throat.
It is definitely helping. I'll know the true result if it is still gone in the morning. I could just be numb. Yuck!
