Miss Tickle

Skaterina has turned a corner

is now on the slippery slope

she wanted the green drink that Crazy Sexy Cancer

girl, Kris Carr, drinks every day

soooo

darling daughter made a big green drink every day

she harvested fresh raw greens from the garden and from the yard

every day !

but

you know there is a

but

Skaterina's taste buds wrinkled their noses

and puckered their lips

if they had any

the green drink was a mite tangy for those poor worn out buds

what now ?

slippery elm

laced with licorice picked outside the kitchen door where it grows

oh my

this is the drink for Skaterina to die for

(ooops, we mean that figuratively)

slippery elm is one of the four ingredients in the Canadian anti.cancer tea

Essiac is the name backwards of the nurse to whom the tea was given

Marie Caisse / that's her name / it was in the 1930's

she is known to have cured her mother of cancer with this tea

the new drink is viscous / that means slippery / gooey ?

well, a bit gooey

it is neutral in flavor

as Skaterina is in no need of seasonings right now

just some straight and honest slippey slidey liquid to soothe

her membranes
