Food for Wood Piling

After a week spent piling firewood in anticipation of this winter's chilly temperatures, I have concluded that piling firewood is... AWFUL. But like all awful tasks in life, firewood piling can be made better with a little creative cookery. So without further ado, I give you:

Five Foods for Wood Piling

  • A 12-foot party sub sandwich is a great option. Not only does it contain plenty of cold cuts (a great source of protein to keep you going strong), but its ridiculously large size will also encourage friends, family, and neighbors to stop by and enjoy a slice of sub - as well as obligate them to help out with some of the wood piling...

  • A thermos of chili also works. The hot chili will keep you nice and warm, plus its smelly side effects will be far less noticeable since most of your wood piling work will be done outdoors.

  • Margaritas are another great option. You can't go wrong with margaritas.

  • Caramel apples... corn dogs... and well... anything else served on a stick really, make convenient wood piling snack choices. After all, your hands are going to get pretty dirty piling all that firewood. And who really wants to be bothered with hand washing before eating a snack?

  • And if those options don't work for you, then why not make yourself an ice cream sundae, sit back, and enjoy one final day of sunshine? After all, you can always pile the firewood tomorrow...
