I spent basically all of last week battling a horrendous ick: fever chills, watery eyes, and (of course) an endlessly runny nose. From what I’ve been hearing, this has been one of the worst cold and flu seasons on record, and that means a lot of paper tissues headed straight to the landfill. I know, handkerchiefs aren’t a sexy topic, but when you’re blowing your nose approximately every 45 seconds, I think it’s an important one to talk about.
