don’t take the antibiotics, the flu is a virus. unless you have a bacterial infection on top of the flu. uggghhh, i hate it when docs give you antibiotics for everything! sorry, pet peeve.
I’m sorry you are sick, you might as well indulge and eat jello;)

the first comment up there was the first thing i thought of too… it’s called a hot toddy, i’m sure you know that. bit of an irish tradition. heat up a bit of lemon juice and honey, then mix in a shot of whiskey (jameson of course) and some hot water. it’s like a hot cup of tea, but with the added benefit of boozin it up in the middle of the morning.

I hope you feel better…
Depending on my swallowing ability (cuz of the sickness; sometimes I can’t swallow so well or deal with bits of food), I like a few things. Turkey stock (hope you saved your turkey frame) with noodles, turkey, and some veggies boiled super soft… http://feistyfoodie.blogspot.com/2007/01/turkey-noodle-soup-and-yet-another.html
I also like pork bone soup with watercress, a throwback to when I was growing up. http://feistyfoodie.blogspot.com/2007/04/watercress-soup-update.html
This soup is also excellent sick or not: http://feistyfoodie.blogspot.com/2007/04/soupy-macs.html (my mom made this for me when I was sick growing up)
As you can see, I like soup when I’m sick
Oh! also, congee, but I don’t have a recipe for that. It’s basically rice gruel… but I have only made it once, and it was disgustingly horrible, so I leave that to my mom or to this one restaurant whose congee I adore (it’s in NYC though).
Feel better…

make manischewitz’s matzo ball soup package with at least 7 garlic cloves added to the broth: I know it’s totally packaged and cheating.. bla bla bla. When you’re sick, you can’t stand for hours and make bubbi’s recipes, and there is nothing in the world that makes a person feel more cared for and warm on the inside than matzo balls in a deliciously salty broth.

boil some water with lemons and peeled ginger, and drink with honey and a shot of whiskey. Makes you feel better AND makes you sleep through the worst of it.
