I had no idea that in my town we have a $3 movie theater!!! I get to have the movie theater experience without paying the ridiculous amount, and the theater is so less crowded because they play movies that came out the season before. (I'm not some cheap penny-pincher, I'm just unemployed right now!) For my youngest brother's birthday present we: myself, birthday boy and the 2nd youngest bro, all went to watch Avatar. I treated them to the concession stand and let them buy whatever they wanted- and *&%@! That Jack in the Box commercial that plays about the expensiveness of movie treats is so DEAD on. For a large popcorn, skittles, sour patch watermelon candy, and two medium drinks it was $23.50!! That's like a 300x mark up, but whatever it was his special birthday celebration. (Wow, I sound really cheap, but honestly I'm not, just a little shocked).
Also two teenage boys can consume like rapid fire a whole bucket of popcorn and down the refill on the bucket too. I've always thought that teenage boys had bottomless stomachs, because they never seem to be full.... lol!
Food: Special K w/soymilk, Eggo waffle with 1 tbsp of almond butter, 8 oz. of chocolate soymilk, two handfuls of theater popcorn, lentil soup, and finished the day with a smoothie!
Vitamin- yep!
Water: didn't keep track, but a lot- been guzzling it!
Exercise: a 4.3 mile walk back from the theater- a perfect day to be outside, slightly warm and a gentle breeze making me think summer is almost here.
Avatar is good movie too. Reminds me of a grown up version of Ferngully with a dash of current anthropology and American History.
For my smoothie:
1 cup chocolate soymilk- the lite version has less cals, and tastes the same
1 small banana
1 tbsp almond or peanut butter
Blend all ingredients together till smooth and chunk free. Enjoy! Or blend with some ice to make it extra thick and cool! Very good when protein powder is blended in too.
