Surprise!

Guess what - my two favorite grandparents in the world have arrived four days early. I'm very excited and pleased to see them... but shit. A weekend of covert food avoidance just transformed into nearly a week. Time for some strategic planning, methinks.

• Avoid all possible meals: arrive late, decline leftovers
• Be sneaky with the snacks: fill up a non-translucent cup and pretend to munch every now and then
• Fake enthusiasm: get super excited over traditional family dishes, mention "favorites"
• Mealtime=battlefield: load up on veggies when possible, choose smaller dish so tiny portions are less obvious, leave at least half uneaten, chew slowly
• Stay focused: no mindless munching, no consumption of unknown calories
• Excuses, excuses: fake hangover (thanks Bella!), period cramps, chew gum (too good/expensive to spit out), wisdom tooth pain, already ate
• Shake that ass: keep moving, burn maximum amount of calories to compensate for that homemade macaroni and cheese
• Project illusions: 1: do some chores, play with the kids, just keep busy so no one has time to wonder why I'm not eating, 2: bring along a to-go cup from any restaurant to make it seem that I already ate

If anyone can add to that I'd really appreciate it. At my mom's house it's very hard to be sneaky because of all the people, so I need to seem as realistic as possible.
