enjoying the great indoors of Winterpeg: A To Do List


My Winterpeg do to-list when its REALLY cold outside:

Build a Pillow/Blanket Fort:  
Rediscover your youth and inner 6 year old and build a fort, it could be one person size, or a fort expanding over your entire living room.   Grab some flashlights and tell scary stories, or pop some pop-corn (not in the blanket fort)  and watch a movie in your own personal cocoon. 




Bake:
...An EPIC cake.    Play with wacky and wonderful flavors. 

Grab a box of cake mix - and then start adding things.   I made a cake with Nutella and Bailey's buttercream icing.  It was kind of amazing.  



Drink:
Have people over who are also sick of the freezing cold and enjoy some libations.  Bailey's in hot-water is my go to.  It really doesn't need anything else.   But try Mulled wine.
Play a made up drinking game.  *oh snap

Make Snow Cones -  experiment with different flavors.   Grab a bin of snow, and a couple cone-cups et VOILA!   C'est une party! 

JUST DANCE
My favorite video game gets my heart rate and is probably 12 on the 1-10 fun scale.   Hi-jack your friends wii and hit up redbox and rent the game.   You won't be sorry.

Light a fire - make some gourmet hot chocolate and pick up that book you've been meaning to finish and read by the hearth.   If you don't have a fire, go to youtube and search yulelog.  



Watch the yule-log for the hand!  Hours of entertainment. 

Write a to-do list, a to -see list, and a to -visit list.

Organise the photo boxes from 2000-2008.

Play hide and go seek with whoever's home... 

Play glow in the dark hide and seek....
Like Hide and Go Seek just with glow sticks! 

Go to Ikea, grab a camera and photograph daily life in Ikea World.  Or challenge your friends to find the best item under $5 or $10.

Any other good ideas out there?
