Tabby snuggles, hot tea with lemon and honey, Chinese food (specifically honey walnut shrimp), being babied, durable face cream (for the skin around my nose, which invariably becomes dry and sore from all the sniffling and blowing) and lifetime motion pictures (like William & Kate on Netflix, which I felt a little better after watching), baggy sweatpants, because seriously, who wants to wear form-fitting clothing with a runny nose?
Oh, and warm socks… I like to put Vicks VapoRub on the soles of my feet and then pull on a pair of warm socks.

Don’t ask me why. I don’t know. I just like it.

Other stuff that helps: Cold-EEZE, Emergen-C, Throat coat tea, Ricola cough drops and an nearly scaldingly hot shower before bed.
What are some things that make you feel better when you have a cold?
