sore throats and fall leaves

yes, i made it home from camping alive, but not well.  over the weekend a nasty cold has taken over.  the boyfriend and i have been in sick mode for the last two days.  lots of tea, soup, ibuprofen and kitty cuddles! 

i didn't take any pictures while we were out in the wilderness but, my mother was just up north in three lakes at our cabin where she snapped some gorgeous pictures of the turning trees.

i mean really, doesn't this look photoshopped?  so gorgeous.  get your scarves and boots out because it is fall!  

do any of you folks know a remedy for sore throats?  we're dying over here.
