Week 1 Day 1 of BM #61 -
Welcome to the first week of this edition. I shall share some home made medicinal teas which have been very useful to us.
This past season, I have relied on this tea on several occasion and have found relief for a couple of hours each time from sore throat and cough. Thanks to my neighbor and friend, Sirisha for sharing such a wonderful remedy.
