Things to Do Instead of Chowing Down

I created this list a few years ago and laminated it. I'm not kidding when I say that I really have referred to it when I'm bored and want to eat, which may or may not be all the time. Ha.

The other day I was sick and so Mark stayed home and watched the twins while I slept and recovered and he said he kept eating all kinds of crap all day because he was so bored! It's not that the twins don't keep us busy, it's just that there's not a lot of productivity going on when they're being watched! I laughed. Good for him to see the struggle I face every day! So, here's the list. I've added a couple more ideas. Funny thing, this was created before I found out I was expecting the twins. I don't have the same amount of free time, but I still have to find ways to replace the boredom munchies.
