The Blue Box's Journal, 28 January 2014

Yesterday work announced it was going to be a snow day today! So my fiancé and I went shopping, just in case we were going to be snowed in. :D

But what do you buy for emergency food? Stuff that won't go bad if electricity goes out. So we bought cookies, pretzels, chips, bread, peanut butter... Basically any and all highly processed, high calorie foods.

And of course I opened the Ginger Snaps last night and could not put them down... Grrr, come on willpower kick in and say: you know what, one serving is enough! Instead of, just one more serving.

Oh well, the damage is done, no sense in beating myself up over it... If it snows though, I'm going to be out there shoveling extra hard to try and burn off some of those calories!

On a completely different note, my fiancé thought of an excellent way to celebrate opposite day, which was January 25th. We should eat all our meals backwards! Ice cream and dinner during breakfast time. Lunch and snacks will be the same. Then serve breakfast at dinner time! How fun is that? So I think we might celebrate opposite day during our snow day. :)

I better hurry up and work out, just in case we lose power. :P

Similar situation here we have to prepare for an eventual cyclone/flood later in the week and i have to think of things that won't go off and arent too unhealthy!

I love it! My mom used to make sweet potato waffles for dinner... a way to make them not so sugary and "breakfast-like". Being on the West coast, it's hard to imagine preparing for a storm, I'll think warm thoughts for you guys!
