>>>GRANDADDY’S WHISKEY COUGH SYRUP<<<

LOL, I thought of you, instantly.

It would also work to keep colds away, as Bill’s Apricot Brandy did, slowly swallow a shot, just before you lay your head down, it would coat the throat and kill germs.

There is another cure that works and I had forgotten ever using it.

For the common flu, get in a warm bed and drink all the Blackberry brandy you can, sleep and wake up fine and dandy.

About 1961, I worked in a Coffee Shop, everyone had the flu and the boss and I were the only ones still on our feet and I was showing symptoms of it.

We were finishing another 16 hour shift and Ray gave me $5.00, ordered me to go and buy the Blackberry Brandy and to go home and drink it.

It worked, I was back at work that night and so was he.

Sheldon’s in San Diego, the last that I heard, Betty was still there, had 40 years in as the morning waitress, I moved on after only 8 years.

Oldest daughter does that as her fall-back job. She has worked as Hostess, Waitress and Manager... She is really good at all 3.

She is a passionate artist and home decorator, but when her commission sales job selling home renovations dropped off to next to nothing late last year, she filled in by waitressing at an upscale restaurant nearby. (She looks for the world like Sandra Bullock, and a really great personality too.) Now, she works as a pharmacist assistant for Walgreens from 7 to 3:30 and by 4 she is at the Executive Restaurant till closing. Then she works weekends there too, full shifts.

Gotta be proud of her - she was upset that she had to dip into her ‘cash reserve’ a bit last year and decided that she wanted to put that back, then she decided to double it to two years. I somehow don’t think she will stop there...
