Writer's Block: Home Remedies

When you get sick or have a cold, what's your favorite remedy to make you feel better?
Alright, I had to bite this one. Seeing as other than drums and what some generously call a 'unique' playing technique , the only other thing that "looms large in [my] legend"  is illness it was highly appropriate.

The best remedy is one the oldest in the world- alcohol. Whatever happens to be handy. Wine works pretty well but Scotch is the ultimate kicker. Then a good night's rest- alone or with my wife or possibly one of my mates- (a doe-eyed bassist  works especially well).

This is all assuming the cold doesn't turn worse on me- which it very well might.
