Snacks: The Secret to Fishing

This last Saturday we went ice fishing at Devil Creek Reservoir. We met Seth's dad, brother-in-law Marty, and niece Arielle there, along with what turned out to be a bunch of fishermen there for an ice fishing tournament.

It was a really nice day and it was good to get out of our dark apartment. Seth and I caught 4 good sized rainbows. They sure tasted delicious!

I have a tip for all you who are wondering what our secret was to catching fish.

#2 Go get a snack. Yup that's right. Not getting any bites? Go dig yourself out a snack from the cooler and I guarantee that'll bring them in. And don't get all sneaky on those fish. They know when you're just pretending to get one.

A Fool-Proof Way to Feel Rich and Powerful

So I thought I'd let you know about the best snack ever. I first had this snack at the salon where I get my hair cut. There's this chick there that periodically walks around the place holding a tray full of nut cups and frozen grapes to offer to the 'clients' as snacks to go with their cucumber water (hate flavored water by the way).

Anyway, I always look forward to getting my hair done so I can have my little cup of frozen grapes. It wasn't until the last time I went in that I thought "Hey! I could make these!" So I did! All you gotta do is get some grapes (I use the red grapes), wash them, pull them off the stems and throw them all into a zip lock bag and freeze for a couple hours!

They taste so good and they're healthy and they are awesome on hot summer days. Plus because they're frozen it forces you to eat them slowly and enjoy them one by one. I like to put mine in a fancy stemmed glass when I eat them. It makes me feel rich and powerful, even when I'm sitting in my loungy pants watching tv.
