Sick Kit Delivery
Bringing you the stuff you wish you had on hand when you least want to go get 'em. | |
What better time to discover that you're out of OJ, throat lozenges, and cold meds than when you're miserably sick.... Don't worry - just call Sick Kit Delivery, and we'll bring it all to you! Our standard "Sick Kit" comes with basic cold meds and throat lozenges, ultra-soft facial tissue, microwavable
chicken-noodle soup, a carton of premium OJ, and a get-well card. And don't think you can only order for yourself! Order for a friend or coworker who's having a rough day in bed. For a nominal extra fee, you can customize a kit with a custom magazine or newspaper and a custom greeting card message!

Good old Kozmo would do everything you asked, back when they existed. [Worldgineer, Mar 08 2005]

For those times when, besides OJ and chicken soup, you need to be pampered. [Pericles, Mar 14 2005]

Very good. Practical. You can get fringe-y with kits that have Echinecea (sp?) and herbal teas, etc., too. |
|
| |
There should be deluxe kits, too, with symptom-specific remedies like bowel oil. |
|
| |
You need also a "bad day" kit where someone will bring you a comforting book, maybe a teddybear, and a half pint of Ben & Jerry's chunky monkey ice ream too. That way, even on days when you call in sick but are really just faking... Also you need a hangover kit! |
|

And a 'Bugger Off Kit', containing pepper spray, a t-shirt that says 'piss off, I'm in a bad mood', a taser, a pre-recorded answering machine message that says 'sorry people, but I'm in a shitty mood today, so please leave a message until my inner rage has gone', and a dartboard with pictures of those you hate on it for an extra fee. I might just halfbake this... |

That's gotta hurt! |

//Chunky monkey ice-cream// The images in my head are disturbing, thanks [gnomethang]. |

But Ben&Jerry's Phish Food Ice-Cream is so much better, especially if you want to rot your insides out. |

He'll kill us all!!!!!!!!!!! |

I'd just like to boast that I made my own ice-cream a couple of weeks ago - 6 egg yolks, 3 whole eggs, lots of sugar, 3 pints of double cream, 3 or 4 pints of whole milk, 2 vanilla pods, 2 bars of top-quality plain chocolate - delicious! |
|

I can't remember - it was about
12-14oz of sugar. Yes - it is cooked: I
heat the cream, some of the milk and
vanilla pods (cut lengthways) to near-
boiling and add some to
the mixed eggs and sugar then put all
this back into the hot cream and
continue heating v-e-r-y gently to
make an egg custard (delicious) rather
than runny scrambled eggs (not so
delicious). In goes the broken-up
chocolate and when it's melted it all
goes into my old-fashioned
hand-cranked ice-cream maker. Top up
with the remaining milk, pack the
ice-cream maker with ice and salt,
crank for 20 mins (which takes the
8-10 pints of near-boiling liquid to a
frozen slush). Put in freezer. |

This idea really needs baking |

Thanks, @Voice. I've been thinking about this idea more recently.... |
