Hello lovely artists, how are you all doing? Is it also hot where you are? Today we had 42°C / 108°F, nice & toasty… I actually wanted to host a little shading live session this week but, believe it or not, I managed to catch a cold. Because what’s more fun than 42°? Yes, 42° with a sore throat and earache 🤪 So I will postpone that to next week. How about you share your family recipes instead? What are you doing against a cold and/or what do you do to keep yourself nice and cool? Let’s have some fun sharing what our grandmothers taught us! Ok, me first: To fight a sore throat you can slowly enjoy a spoonful of honey every hour or so. It’s anti-inflammatory and helps calm irritated mucous membranes. And to keep you cool, you should drink warm water, not ice-cold. Your body has to spend energy warming up ice-cold water, which can make you sweat even more. Who’s next? 😇
