Recipe: Honey Lemon Ginger Infusion for a Sore Throat
If you’ve got an itchy throat or feel yourself coming down with a flu this winter, save some money and make your own soothing hot drink. The folks over at SlashFood have a good Honey Lemon Ginger infusion / hot drink:
“Simply grate a half inch chunk of ginger into a large mug. Squeeze the juice of half a lemon in on top (you can also add the zest if you’re feeling daring) and add a heaping teaspoonful of honey (feel free to adjust the sweetness level to your personal taste). Fill the cup with boiling water and stir to combine. Drink while still warm and repeat as necessary. “

Quaker Oats Free Sample: Dark Chocolate Raspberry Almond True Delights
The deal mavens over at DealNews.com have posted info about Quaker Oats and a free sample they’re mailing out.
I have no idea what Dark Chocolate True Delights are. They could be a new instant oatmeal flavor (which would be weird…chocolate and oatmeal?), or it could be a new granola type of bar. Those are the only product lines from Quaker Oats that come immediately to mind.
Any other ideas? (Without Googling, of course).

Free Krispy Kreme Doughnut! 1/20 Inauguration Day
You know I love a deal when it really doesn’t cost you anything to get something. (Ok, the more intense of you out there would argue that it costs your time to stand in line…more on that later.)
Krispy Kreme issued a press release saying that on January 20, nationwide, you can get 1 doughnut of your choice for free, in honor of the Inauguration.
“Krispy Kreme is taking the inaugural festivities nationwide,” said Ron Rupocinski, executive chef for Krispy Kreme. “We’re inviting our fans in cities across the country, including Washington, D.C., to commemorate this historic day with a favorite American treat.”
