This Weather Is Making Me Hungry

I have a severe case of blog block which basically means I have no idea what to write. Part of me wants to be funny and part of me wants to be really serious and the sides are in a tie so I'm writing this piece of garbage. I almost titled this post "This Weather Is Making Me Fat" but I knew that would result in forced compliments that I want no party to. The snow in late March is sucking my will to live. My toes are cold and my fingers are cold and Tim doesn't like it when I try to warm them up on his bare hairy chest which I think is rude. Last year at this time the weather was nice, no? I remember being outside and being active. Well, not this year, not with the arctic wind and snow on the ground. Now that just makes me want to eat! I'm not even hungry and I'm scouting the left over Easter candy and having chips and salsa at 10pm which all of these, eating after 6 pm, chocolate, and spicy food is a strict no no for me because I have acid reflux! They gave me a sheet at the doctor's office and everything...said something about damaging my esophagus. Nothing has deterred my late night snacking and I'm blaming it on the weather and I'm sick of it. My mind is so on comfort food that I even posted recipes to our recipe blog to get my mind off eating...it didn't help. And you can all spare me the pregnant comments too because that is not causing this...it is this crappy weather that has me thinking that I need to pack on a few to get me through the winter that never ends...I think it is primal.

Have you noticed a repeating theme...all my Sunday posts are peevish...I wonder why?




Luke likes to be tickled. It was great a discovery. He was quiet through most of Sacrament Meeting. Puts him in the zone...look at that face!





We went to the park to try and feed the ducks but ended up chasing seagulls because the ducks were too cold to swim to our crappy offering of popcorn. I guess they like bread. Beggars can't be choosers!




Who would throw away a perfectly good child? Does the waste never end?





I'm not always in a bad mood. Sometimes I read to the kids. Look matching PJ's.

Drive 5 hours South and go camping. That will cure you. Just don't complain about how hot it is.

I laughed at this post! Last night at 8:00... Eason's bed time, we spontaneously got in the car and raced to Costco before it closed just to get a Coconut Cream pie! I don't know how we'll even eat the whole darn thing... but weird weather does strange things to people!
