Redneck Sledding


Living in the South, we really don't have a sled waiting around for us to use. But there are a few days every once in a while where it would be very useful. So we grabbed a slim piece of wood, added two laundry baskets, piled the kids in, and threw it down the driveway. Pretty? No. But it worked. That was until Cameron decided to get out and face planted into the ice. After two stitches, he was fine and back sledding again.

Taco Bell $1 Menu Challenge

Yesterday, Mike (a guy I work with) and I decided to take the Taco Bell $1 Menu Challenge. It consists of everything on the $1 menu including, Cheesy Nachos (280 calories), Cinnamon Twists (180) , a Soft Taco (210), a Hard Taco (170), a Crispy Potato Soft Taco (280), a Cheese Roll-Up (200), a Caramel Apple Empanada (310), a Grilled Chicken Burrito (430), and a 20 ounce Mountain Dew (280). 2400 calories of pure Taco Bell goodness.
I'm happy to say, that I took it down no problem. Now, was it a smart idea? Probably not. Especially if you are a co-worker.
