How to Spend a Rainy Day: Fan Girl Style

When a cold front comes in with rain, wind, and thunder theres only way to spend your day: fan girl style! Here are some tips on how to make the best out of a rainy day indoors, and how to avoid cabin fever.
Tip #1: Have an Orlando movie marathon! Weather it's the Lord of the Rings trilogy or Pirates of the Caribbean, nothings better than cuddling up with a blanket and treating yourself to some Orlando time. And with his wide array of movies to choose from, you will never get board while watching him!

Tip #2: Brew some hot chocolate or some Middle Earth recipes. You can go for the classic hot chocolate if you want, but if your feeling creative try making Aragorn's Athelas Tea, also known as Kingsfoil, not only is this good for when your under the weather it's very refreshing, since it's main ingridient is mint! If you will want to try this you will need: the juice of 2 lemons, 3-4, 1/2 inch coins of ginger, 1 clove of garlic, about 7-10 mint leaves, 2L filtered boiling water, and honey.
Place ginger, mint and peeled garlic (uncrushed) into a cheesecloth and tie it off. Add to boiling water and cook/steep for 5-7 minutes. Turn off heat and add the lemon juice, remove the spices and transfer to  a tea-pot . Add honey as desired.

Tip #3: Go on a YouTube binge! There are so many fun interviews of Orlando on YouTube, one could literally spend hours on end browsing through videos! Orlando-Bloom.org has a new 'videos' section and has about 7 pages of glorious Orlando content!
                                           

Tip #4: Put on some fuzzy socks and sit in a cozy chair and read! My best suggestion, Lord of the Rings of course!
