night off.

by Janetha on March 30, 2011

in meals

the furnace is out.

we had a water softener installed yesterday and they messed with the electricity in the utility closet and now our furnace is out.

i am cold.

on top of that, i feel like i am coming down with some sort of sickness. my belly hurts. i am sneezing and sniffling.

the ice cold house isn’t helping.

but the bowl of cereal and mug of cinnamon vanilla tea sure is.

Burn to death or freeze to death…how morbid! lol. I’d have to say burn to death. I hate being cold! The last green food I ate was the asparagus, celery, and peas in my soup at lunch. I sleep with 3 pillows. I have a phobia of rodents–YUCK! The last thing I took a photo of was a sweet braid that one of my friends did in my hair. I would kill to learn how to braid but it is always an epic fail! lol

Gabriela @ Une Vie Saine March 30, 2011 at 2:51 pm

2. what was the last green food you ate? Spinach in my mac and cheese!!

3. how many pillows do you sleep with? Dos.

4. do you have any phobias? Um, YES, and I actually came face to face with it in class this afternoon when we talked about post-WWII France. Head shaving. Shudder. Don’t ask.

Have a great night off!!

1. I would rather freeze to death. I’ve thougth about that many times, and my uncle caught on fire when he was working on his car when he was a teenager and the gas leaked from his car to the hot water heater and it blew up. My mom who was 10 or 11 at the time was the only one home and saw him running around completely on fire, (he did survive btw, thank God!) so needless to say, we are all terrified of fire in this family!

2. I just finished eating an english cucumber

3. 2 or 3 depending on my mood, but there are 3 on my bed every night

4. I have many phobias, and a I’m borderline hypochondriac, so I don’t allow myself to watch Nightline or watch or read anything that will set me off! :) I am also claustrophobic, I hate spiders and other bugs, especially the evil June bugs that decorate our front door in June/July when I’m trying to leave for work, or God forbid get home when it’s dark!

5. The last thing I took a photo of was was my lunch of leftover chicken & quinoa casserole. Yum! But not very exciting!

Nicole G March 30, 2011 at 3:02 pm

1. freeze to death

2. Romaine lettuce in my grilled chicken and caesar salad for dinner

3. Two

4. Yes, spiders and bees/wasps Yuck!!

5. My kids on my new Sprint HTC 4G Evo!!! :)

Hope your furnace is back to working soon! I hate being cold, it makes me sleepy and soo unmotivated!

Kate (What Kate is Cooking) March 30, 2011 at 3:25 pm

I would rather freeze to death. Burning to death sounds horrible! That being said, I just read about the Donner party and freezing to death doesn’t sound particularly great either…

Pure2raw twins March 30, 2011 at 3:25 pm

Hopefully you warm up soon!! And feel better :)

Last green thing I ate was brussel sprouts on top of my zucchini pasta ;) And I took a photo of it, of course, haha

Averie (LoveVeggiesAndYoga) March 30, 2011 at 3:25 pm

I eat green plants, sleep with a boatload!! of pillows, am fighting a virus too, and would rather burn than freeze. Hate to be cold and growing up in MN, literally did almost freeze to death on a -40F winter night.

Megan (Running Foodie) March 30, 2011 at 3:29 pm

1. Freeze!
2. Kale in my chili

Feel better!

Allison @ Runs A Latte March 30, 2011 at 3:32 pm

Oh man, I have some embarrassing answers to these questions, which both just happen to involve Sponge Bob Square Pants. I understand if you read no further.

1. I have to sleep holding a sponge bob pillow. He’s the perfect shape and size for holding. I HAVE to hold a pillow when I sleep, otherwise I have no clue what to do with my arms.

2. Just seconds ago, I took a picture of my cut-up fingers after trying to use a knife to peel a frozen banana for a green monster. Yes, it wasn’t my brightest moment. Then I took another “after” picture sporting 2 sponge bob band-aids.

Mallory March 30, 2011 at 3:39 pm

1. freeze to death. – seems less painful!
2. Spinach salad today at lunch.
3. I sleep with 3 pillows.
4.I hate deep dark water. – freaks me out to not know whats underneath me!
5. I think the last picture I took was of me & my mom in San Fransisco last weekend.

J3nn (Jenn's Menu and Lifestyle Blog) March 30, 2011 at 4:11 pm

I’d rather freeze than burn to death, though, I’m sure it feels equally bad either way.

The last green thing… A green m&m

I sleep with two pillows.

Lots of phobias, heights, death, etc.

The last pic I took was of poker chips.

Emily March 30, 2011 at 4:22 pm

1. Burn to death. Being cold is The Worst Feeling Ever.
2. I am currently sipping some Ormus Supergreens. Does that count?
3. Two. I would sleep with more if we had more/husband wanted more. I like to be surrounded by them.
4. This isn’t a phobia exactly, but I can’t handle the feeling of someone else’s feet touching my feet. I pretty much just have an irrational, near-crippling hatred of feet.
5. My stuffed bunny Bruce. So photogenic.

Feel better!!

Mimi (Gingersnaps) March 30, 2011 at 4:36 pm

Aww, poor girl! Stay warm!

I’d rather freeze to death because after awhile you just go to sleep.

With dinner I had a yummy cucumber-blueberry balsamic salad.

I don’t have any phobias. But clowns and dolls make me uncomfortable and trigger happy. Like, “I’ve got my eye on you, clowny.”

1. Freeze. I’ve heard it’s just like falling asleep, except you’re frozen.
2. Lettuce with dinner…boring. Good thing it was paired with spaghetti.
3. I use 1. My husband uses 4, yeah, it’s strange.
4. None these days, but when I was a little girl I would be paralyzed by fear anytime a moth was in the same room as me. My dad fought a LOT of moths for me in my youth.
5. My girls getting horsey rides from their dad and big brother last night.

Kelly @ Kelly Be Well March 30, 2011 at 6:13 pm

Erica D March 30, 2011 at 6:22 pm

I ask myself question #1 ALL THE TIME, and I still can’t decide! Cold would be miserable, and heat would be excruciating. Both are too terrible.

I’ve had spinach with every meal today, so there’s my green! I sleep with 3 pillows: 2 big, 1 head-sized. I don’t think I’m afraid of anything except freak injuries, like falling on an ice rink and having someone skate over my fingers (!), and the last thing I photographed was goat cheese :)

Julia March 30, 2011 at 6:55 pm

Enjoy your night off! Hope the heat gets fixed quickly.

Ash March 30, 2011 at 7:24 pm
