Living on one teensy weensy income in our house sometimes makes us crazed for sales. The dollar sales at the grocery store usually influence Brad more than me. But let’s say, for example, that you were at the grocery store and buying groceries for the cottage. Let’s say some really crappy food was on sale for a dollar. What would you do?
Oops! How did ice tea, pop and frozen pizza get in there?!?!?! Oh and chips, salty salty chips, mmmmmm … I mean HOW?!?!?!
I swear to you there are a tonne of fruits and vegetables hidden under the junk food.
Let’s talk tennis again. Apparently no one really knew I liked tennis? Wimbledon has always been my favourite tournament. Our friend Raquel (who Brad works with) was asking Brad about my tennis love after reading my blog this week. Brad decided to make up a story about how I started watching tennis to feed my lust for Sampras and Agassi. That’s not true at all, I never lusted after them. Back in that day I lusted after Patrick Rafter. Ahhhhhhhh? Anyone else?
Speaking of lust. My long weekend starts at 2:40 today because I have a date to go watch Magic Mike (heheheheeeeee *uncontrollable giggles.)
Do you grab junk food to take the cottage? Seriously Patrick Rafter anyone?
Cottage+lakes/water/ocean all call for some junk food and booze! I love nothing more than sitting by the water with a glass of wine, or cocktail, and a big bowl of salty potato chips!!!
OR beer and chips
haha do you think I can convince Ryan to take me to see magic mike?! Also I wish I knew before you liked tennis, our old building had a tennis court we never used once!
ummm no, no I don’t think you can hahaha
I’m pretty sensitive to sales as well, though I’m definitely getting better. But who can say no to buy one get one free candy bars? Dangerous, I tell you.
there were candy bars on sale too, but I resisted … it was really the chips I was after
OMG I’m jealous you’re going to see Magic Mike today! I must go next week, must!
Lily wanted to see it for her bday … I couldn’t say no could I?!?!?
I’m joining a bunch of Twitter ladies to check out Magic Mike on Monday. We are shameless.
And yes – junk food consumed at the cottage doesn’t count anyway (and don’t let ANYONE tell you otherwise)
step one: GET ME TO A COTTAGE.
*I promise to report back*
I was searching for make-ahead recipes to take to the cottage on google, and your post popped up! I have a salty tooth rather than a sweet tooth, so I’ll always choose the chips!
