Things to wo when you are Snowed In!

So I made it in to work today but our boss was nice enough to let us go home early before the mess decided to get worse.  I work directly beside the 401 highway so all day we were cringing watching the traffic crawl.

My balcony looks like a snowy jail cell... ergh.

I can't exactly go anywhere tonight so I grabbed a latte on my way home and have decided to come up with things to do while I'm stuck in my house.

1.  Online shopping - I'm in an upcoming wedding and the bride would like coral or "mint" green coloured bridesmaid dresses.  The wedding is in Jamaica so I figured the new summer lines might have some good options!  Here are some of my favourite sites:

• ASOS
• ModCloth
• Simply Audrey
• Anthropologie
• Etsy

2.   Search Pinterest - I'm completely obsessed so I don't want to waste my whole night on this one ;)

3.  Laundry - I have a mess in my room so cleaning up that plus washing all the clothes in my laundry hamper, this should keep me busy for a while!

4.  Try a new recipe - This one I will have to get creative with.  I don't want to have to make a trip to the grocery store so I need to think of something to make with what I have in my cupboards!  I think a casserole will be the best idea, so easy to throw something together and then bake it.  I have ground beef, mushroom soup, frozen peas and corn, cheddar cheese, whole wheat pasta and some bread crumbs.

5.  Yoga - its really quiet outside because there aren't many people out and about so I have peace in my house.  I can spend half an hour following an online yoga class.  My favourite at home yoga classes are through podcasts.  I follow Yoga Download, Yoga Today and Tara Stiles.  The issue with the podcasts is that you have to know the postures beforehand to be able to follow.  If you are a beginner you might want to follow something on Youtube.

6.  Change the photos in my picture frames - something I like to do every other month to change up the scenery in my house!

7.  Clean out my closet - starting my spring cleaning early.  This can take a long time so maybe I will only do my dresser today.

8.  Facetime my parents - I don't even know if I should do this, my parents are in Florida and it will probably just put me in a jealous rage.  Ha!  I text my Dad this morning to let him know about the pile of snow we received last night and he let me know he was about to go for a swim in their pool.  Real nice pops.

9.  Plan out the rest of my weekend - this I would probably be doing now even if I was at work :)

10.  Watch a movie - Obviously.  Snow days always end with a good movie and a glass of wine!  It's almost valentines day so maybe a romantic themed movie.  My absolute favourite movie of all time is Pride and Prejudice - classic.
