Grandma Nell thought 'bout everything could be cured with judicious amounts of either:
homemade cough syrup with local bee's honey (and comb) and big dollup of bourbon in it
or for the teens
dandelion wine with a much larger dollup of bourbon
or for adults she just kept a bottle in the freezer.
We were healthy. We were happy. We were never on antibiotics, we rarely if ever took aspirin and we slept outside -- hell my senior year we had a large outside slumber party with booze and 2 kegs. If you were hot in the house you went and slept outside. Fixed that didn't it?
