It has been 2 days since I have had a persistent running nose. I have already lost count to the number of tissue sets I have consumed up and the amount of honey-ginger decoction that I have ingested.
Apart from all this, my reddened and scaling columella nasi is another sure shot proof to my being severely bugged with the cold virus.
All this while, a time came (about 12 hours back) when I got so frustrated with carrying tissue reams in my hand for the blocked ENT zone within me that I started looking for an creative outlet to take my mind off all the blocked and irritant stuff.
That was when I ended up doing two things - an alternative therapy cure for the cold, and a beautiful classy clutch for the tissues to stack on.
As for the cold cure, I ended up drinking cups and cups of my favourite Mulligatwany soup. Just 2 regular sized bowls of it cleared out my entire nasal zone vertically as well as horizontally.
When the 30% of my nasal passage got cleared, I realised the amount of cash I was usually shelling out for each bowl when devoured at restaurants. It was a good 125 INR (approx. 2 $) that I was investing for my cold cure every meal. On the contrary, the regular OTC antibiotics required for the cold cure would have cost a mere quarter of the amount costing the soup, and also would have relieved me of the cold in just 6 hours. But me being a NO DRUG person; I persisted on my organic indulgences and discovered the recipe to be made at home. I searched a lot on the internet and finally found one recipe that suited the ingredients that were available at my home then. I then altered that one a bit more and made it as per my palette.
I must say, the outcome was wonderful. The testimony to its efficacy was a flow of creativity in my head which replaced the stoic stuffed phlegm through an aromatic and delicious route.
I will come to the recipe later, but before that I am excited to share the creativity that I spanned out in mere 6 hours flat.
I ended up making this clutch with a bit of inspiration from few designs that I found online while I was surfing for a solution to hold my weight of tissues. There were many elaborate ones, but this one particular was the simplest that I could crochet on with ease. Though I modified the edging a bit to make it less flamboyant; and voila I was ready with a convenient and chic piece of an accessory that turned everyone's attention around me every time I sneezed.
A long list of double crochets and few picots is crochet techniques is all that is required to come up with this one. In case you want to skip making it, you can consider purchasing here.
I can color coordinate it as per the preferences.
I must admit, staying classy at times of a bad flu has never has never been so much fun.
P.S.: I have included it in my display as well. here goes the link.
