After a day or two of a sore throat that turned to a completely stuffed nose I headed to my acupuncturist. She is AMAZING. The result? The magnets that you see on my belly (there were also some on my ankles). The scary looking juice box is a personalized herbal tea. I ventured to Boston's famous Chinese herbalist. With a feel of my wrist he had a "perscription" written in Chinese characters. The staff whipped up 14 of the pouches, 2 each day for 14 days. Yep, it tastes totally gross. However, within less than 24 hours I was no longer blowing my nose. At all.

Asparagus!

Is it possible to overdose on asparagus? If so, then I am well on my way. I have had either the green or purple variety every night this week.... yum!
