I’m sick.
I don’t know what the deal is, but I am going to spare you deets and say I might not make it through the night. Who wants my cat?
Since I’m feeling nauseous I’ve had some ginger chews and mints to help calm my stomach. I wish I had ginger ale, but most of them don’t even have real ginger in them – reminder to check the label!
Which leads to my tip of the day:
Just the Tip: Ginger helps your tummy.
NOT 7UP / other soda or ‘binge drinking to kill all the germs in your body’. Yes, I’ve heard it all.
See you later.

Hmm, sick after your brother’s wedding – maybe too much fun was had?? 🙂
runeatrepeat says
Allegedly 😉
Nicole says
Maybe Whole Foods has some *REAL* Gingerale? …plus, you can get some hot bar stuff while you’re there. 😉
I’m 32 and unmarried. I think I need a cat.
Presh says
I also drink warm (not refrigerator) ginger ale when i have a tummy ache.
Carolyn says
Ginger People make a great ginger beer that has pressed ginger juice in it–it’s pretty strong. I can only drink it medicinally. Reed’s also makes one, but it’s sweeter and a touch less gingery. Good, not as strong. Feel better!

Do. Not. Die. who would be my Mexican running inspiration? Oh, but if you do die, I’m sure Vegas would get along great with my cat, Mr. Grits.
runeatrepeat says
Love your cat’s name!
Nicole says
I have also read that even if the soda has real ginger, it is not actually enough to settle the stomach. You are better off with the mints.

🙁 feel better! (in case, consider me for your cat :P) I had some major stomach issues last month, It felt like a scene out of the exorcist … turned out to be a kidney stone. =.= Because I run a lot and don’t drink enough (but unlike me you’re good at hydrating!!!) Anyhow, take good care! (Did I ever leave a comment?I don’t know, I am usually a silent stalker … 😉 …I’m Luna, from Italy, thanks for blogging :). Ciao!

Actually cola syrup is used for nausea…think that’s why people say drink a flat cola. You can buy the syrup at most drugstores. Hope you feel better soon.
