Heart of the City by Steenz for January 31, 2023

Can’t beat the classics.

I hope the ginger ale is still cold, or that they have ice.

Missing saltines.

For the truly serious illness one must use Vernors.

This strip has been brought to you by brands.

" It couldn’t HOIT !! " … :)

My grandmother used ginger ale to treat me when I had nausea, and the Vicks VapoRub went as two small dabs into each nostril. It worked extremely well as a decongestant like that. I was totally grossed out when I found out at a later age that people actually put that gunk on their chests. Yuck.

Chicken noodle soup is a great remedy for all your ills.

My Grandfather, when ill with chest or head colds, would EAT Vicks Vaporub, using a toothpick yo scoop out small dabs.

Always grossed me out, although my Mother also put small dabs of Vicks in each nostril when any of us kids were sick.

Go easy on the Vaporub, and chest and back ONLY ! And yes, it IS that strong.

And hot showers and breathe steam and no milk or dairy products of any kind.
