I had an acupuncture this morning before going to work. For my cough, my acupuncturist (Dr. L) gave me a recipe to fix it, so I got the ingredients after work and just made this soup. You use sweet rice, leek (white part only), ginger, and rice vinegar. But you can not add any seasonings, so it tastes pretty bad, and actually you only eat rice part and don't even eat leek and ginger. Sweet rice gets pretty sticky, so my soup became more like a porridge. Maybe I should have added more water! When you have a bad cough from cold next time, please try this recipe.
Also, now I have to eat food that are good for my spleen (because spleen supports lung function). According to Dr. L, yellow colored food (like squash or pumpkin) is very good. Also, lemon juice with honey, Daikon radish, and pears. I have to avoid cold food and processed food, sugar, greasy food, eggs, milk, shellfish, fish, and cheese. Now, it is getting more and more challenging to plan my meals.
By the way, we are going to the zoo again with my friend & her son (a few weeks older than Kai). This time I hope Kai is awake enough to see all the major animals.
Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend! Good night.
