Frickin Freezing

Oh my gosh it has been cold!!  This morning it was 10 degrees, but with the wind chill factored in it was -5 degrees. Yes, that's MINUS 5 degrees. And McGee and I were idiots and decided to go to the gym this morning... And we always just wear our gym clothes (no jackets or anything) because the gym is always quite warm (and we get super warm when we're working out), so we only have like one minute outside walking to/from the car... But this morning, I think we probably should have thrown on a jacket or something for that 1 minute outside. It was SO damn cold.

And I had thought that the gym might be kinda busy, because I know gyms are typically super busy after the New Year because of everyone's resolutions... But that gym was probably the emptiest I've ever seen it!!  I think everyone else was much smarter than us and decided it was just too cold to venture to the gym. We're dumb. BUT, it feels good now to know that I've already had my workout for the day! So that's something.

Tonight we're having lasagna which should be good because it'll be nice and warm, but let me tell ya, right now the thing that sounds best is some nice hot soup!!!  And some nice hot tea... and some nice hot coffee... You get the idea!  Oh, but speaking of hot soup: We made this soup a few nights ago, and it was AMAZING!!!

If you're looking for a new soup recipe, I highly recommend it. The dill adds such an amazing flavor (and I may have added a bit more than the recipe said). Here's the link for the recipe: http://www.willcookforsmiles.com/2013/11/chicken-meatball-orzo-hearty-soup.html

I think we're going to finally go see the new Lord of the Rings movie this weekend. Last night we went to see The Imitation Game (starring Benedict Cumberbatch), and it was beyond amazing. It blew my mind, and I think everyone should see it! I hope Mr. Cumberbatch wins an Oscar for that performance!! He was so great in it.

I hope you're all staying warm!!
