Fun ways to combat cabin fever..

Right about now cabin fever starts its long haul. For those of you who don't care to waste away watching "Friends" reruns, I've come up with a few suggestions. If you have some better ones let me know and I'll include them in next month's newsletter.

Catch up on your classics
Take a look at American Film Institute's (www.afi.com) list of the hundred greatest movies of all time and head off to your local video store.

Make a Feast
If you know you're going to be trapped indoors, find some recipes that you've never made before. Invite some friends and family over and tell them to bring a side dish. What a wonderful way to pass the day.

Cheap Wine Night
Invite your family and friends over for a cocktail night. Ask them to bring the cheapest bottle of wine they can find. Then, spend the night sampling wine to choose the best. The person who brought that wine wins a prize.

Board Game Bonanza
Dust off that Scrabble box and find out if your college education was worth it. If that doesn't pan out, just switch over to slang Scrabble, where anything counts if you can use it in a sentence. (This can be combined with Cheap Wine Night for added fun.)

Redecorate
March is a good time to rearrange all your furniture and accessories to give your place a fresh new perspective. For even more fun, switch the entire place around when your family is away, and then pretend like they are crazy when they think the place is different.

  • Mexican Hot Chocolate
  •   Here's a recipe that will warm you from the inside out...

    1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
    1/4 cup granulated sugar
    3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    dash salt
    1 quart milk (4 cups), divided
    1/4 cup half-and-half
    3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

    In a small bowl, combine cocoa, sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Heat 1 cup of milk in a saucepan until bubbling. Stir in cocoa mixture and whisk until smooth. Bring to a boil over low heat, stirring constantly. Stir in remaining 3 cups milk and return to boiling. Before stirring, whisk until frothy; stir in cream and vanilla then heat through. Serves 4 to 6.
