Midnight Feasting 101

 Hello readers and welcome to the second post from WISE OWL CLUB BLOGS!!!! In this post, we will be telling you the sneakiest ways to have a perfect midnight feast. The moment we say midnight feast, we think of a sleepover.

Midnight feasts are a big deal. No one but the feasters should know about it. The first step to a Midnight Feast or "middlefloof in Accatin (the WOC official language), is stocking up all the snacks. They are meant to be finished. It's a sleepover and since you don't have one every day, it's ok to pile up on some junk food. For example, we had these many snacks for a sleepover for only 3 people

Snacks

And we literally had all of them finished the next day. We didn't have a choice.

Now for the sneaky part. Midnight feasts aren't something you tell everyone about. Like mentioned above, the middlefloof should remain between the feasters only. But then how to sneak it into the room? Easy, put the snacks in your bag and then remove them when you reach the room.

But what if... someone comes in to check on you and sees the snacks? Or what if they come in the middle of the night to check on you and see you eating stuff or see the stuff you are going to eat or see the stuff that you ate???? Relax. You'll probably be taking blankets and usually on a sleepover night, and you go to bed around 10pm. Stuff the snacks in the blanket. Or a cupboard under the stairs. In the photo above, all the snacks are on the stairs which are actually a cupboard. If possible, you can do the same! We just took them out for the sake of the photo.

Since you may sleep by 10pm, you can sleep for a bit (one or two hours) and make sure you have an alarm. There is always that one friend who can literally program her mind to wake up at a decided timing. That friend can wake you up. Then you can get feasting. Or you can just stay awake till midnight and then fall into a very deep sleep after feasting. 

That's not all. Remember how it is mentioned above that what if someone comes in to check on you...? You can eat in the dark or if things get a bit difficult, feel free to use a dim night lamp. Chat all you want, but in low voices and always be alert for sounds of footsteps approaching. If you hear anyone coming, slide into your blanket along with your snacks and if you can switch of the nightlight quickly, do that too. It's recommended to switch of the lamp so if you silently burst out laughing or if you grin, no one will notice. Then once the person is away and out of earshot, wait for a few minutes and the hit the resume button! Dispose the wrappers without anyone seeing you in the morning. It's best to wake up early so that the trash you dispose will go along with the trash from the day before and no one will even know!

One important thing, this is not just for midnight feasts, but sleepovers in general. Keep a bottle of water with you as it is possible for you to get thirsty while eating all the midnight snacks. There have been accidents when someone (I wonder who........) has ended up spilling water on the mattress while tent camping and it was not the best situation. So, the lid of the bottle should be closed in a proper manner and the bottle must. be. leak. proof.
