The Onion

About two months ago my Mom#2 (stepmom) told me that someone told her that if you put an onion in a bowl under the bed it will help ward off illnesses.  I was a little skeptical but I figured what could it hurt besides my ADD self forgetting it was there and leaving it to rot so I put an onion in a bowl and placed it under the bed.

Thus far I’ve had a bad cold, sprained my ankle, had an allergic reaction to Advil and now an ear infection.  I have a feeling that that onion is sitting under my bed just giggling and thinking “SUCKER!”
