To your health


Sharing a Chinese herbal drink supposedly to keep your body 'strong' so that you will not be so easily infected with swine flu.

MP calls it ‘FLC’ - flu leong cha.

We usually boil a big pot for about an hour or two with a little rock sugar for taste. Note that the sugar is added towards the end when almost ready. Bottle them and keep them fresh in the refrigerator. Warm up a little before drinking it. Sometimes I have it cold, especially if it is a HOT day!

Taste wise, its like any other leong cha, sweet with a slight herbal taste. Quite nice actually. And if you are concerned, there is no bitter aftertaste.

No translation as I can’t read it myself but am sure any shop selling Chinese herbs will be able to assist you easily. Just a note to say that if you have any sensitive allergies or pregnant, etc. pls consult your doctor first.


Have a good weekend.

Double sigh

DH and I each had a pair of shoes stolen this morning from our garage.

Seems to be a 'dark' week for us.

Sigh....
