Winter Break
I wanna go outsideeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. I always want to do that but nobody ever wants to come and play with me :( I thought maybe hockey would work out yesterday but people either had family things or other errands to run....and today it of course is cold and overcast.
Maybe I'll start a list of fun things to do outside so that when I am bored I will have ideas. yay. It's just so much harder in the winter time.
I'm at home, so I've been drinking wine with the parents. I actually do like wine, I've grown to really like red wine where at first I only like white.
Super stocked for New Years dinner because we'll have people over and have fondue!
Skiing for 4 days was amazing! It was like 4 days of being outside the entire time it was light out. That always tuckers me out, I was dead tired by the time dinner rolled around, a completely exhausted, body feeling heavy, good tired. I love that, makes me feel like I did something.
Skiing food:
Breakfast - free continental breakfast - fruit salad and waffles, toast, bagels, baked goods, and cereal along with coffee, tea, juice, and water
I tried waffles the first day, they were ok. I have decided that waffles are kind of gross. They are so plain - taste like nothing unless you add a bunch of maple syrup or jam, in which case you might as well have a tasty thing underneath. I guess the only novelty is the little squares that can be filled with syrup, that's kinda fun. So I had toast the 2nd day and a bagel on the third.
Lunch: we almost always bring our own food to eat in the lodge. This trip we brought those instant noodle soup things that you just add boiling water to. They're not the greatest thing but definitely do the trick when you need something to fill you up, warm you up, and replenish the salts lost through sweat. We also brought granola bars and apples and chocolate. The boys also bought fries because that's what they do when we go skiing.
Dinner: two days of spaghetti factory and one night at the food court. Spaghetti Factory is the usual place to go, it's close and cheap and warm and has many good looking waitresses for the boys. The last day we got in the car after skiing and stopped at a Timmy's along the way.
So food costs for the trip were really low and I like that.
