Cotton Boll Quilt Block, Kleenex, and Tea Time Comfort



Cotton Boll Quilt Block Pattern Information

Tea is a great comfort when I'm not feeling well.  Join me today for tea time, although you will have to put up with some coughing and sneezing!  One of my daughters-in-law clued me in to this wonderful Yogi Throat Comfort Tea.  It really feels soothing on my throat right now. 

 

The Sniffle

 

In spite of her sniffle,

Isabel’s chiffle.
Some girls with a sniffle
Would be weepy and tiffle;
They would look awful,
Like a rained-on waffle,
But Isabel’s chiffle
In spite of her sniffle.
Her nose is more red
With a cold in her head,
But then, to be sure,
Her eyes are bluer.
Some girls with a snuffle,
Their tempers are uffle,
But when Isabel’s snivelly
She’s snivelly civilly,
And when she is snuffly
She’s perfectly luffly.
