Just gonna wing it

Why hello there, Tuesday Internet. You look so much more mature than Monday Internet. That pigtail puller.

What a lovely weekend we just had! Snow. Icy roads. Just begging to be stayed home in. Not showering or changing clothes until you realize the stain on your elbow is from over 24 hours ago. And perhaps sometimes more than 24 hours...

At my Dad's mentioning, I realize I forgot to make the hot chocolate to drink in front of the (non-working) fireplace. Boo! How could I forget such an integral part of snow fun? I did imbibe in the traditional 14 layers of soppy snow socks. And the after-snow-cold appendage tingle that makes your fingers like needles. Followed by a warm soup finger feeling.

While we were snowed in, I did some food makin'. I made some peanut butter cookies with Splenda. While they were rather tasty, the consistency was rather heavy. (Like, drop-it-in-a-bucket-and-watch-it-sink heavy.) Made a nice light chicken pasta with wheat noodles. I know white flour is like soooooo bad for you. But I must say, the wheat noodles and rice just aren't quite there yet on the consistency side.

Topped the weekend off with some nice blackened chicken breasts.

It's supposed to look burnt

And now, because we were snowed in on my usual grocery day, we're pretty much out of food. So I'll be posting pictures of take-out for the rest of the week. Hold your breath for a McDonald's grilled chicken salad, coming soon!

You know, McDonald's has REALLY stepped up their chicken game over the last couple of years. I think that bears a mention. Their meat used to be quite questionable and now you look at it and immediately know 'hey, that's some chicken right there'. And I'm lovin it.

Well, sorta. I really don't eat that much fast food.

Alright, Internet. It's time for a moment of silence for the many chickens that will give their lives for us to have a delicious treat on this upcoming Superbowl Sunday. Make sure you do them justice.
