Godspell and The Superbowl

So... I saw Godspell for the first time this weekend. One of our local theater groups performed it. It does allow for a lot of freedom for the actors. I would like to see this show again, but with a different group.

I watched the superbowl of course. I was rooting for the Saints, so I was happy with the outcome. Carlos and I and a few of our friends got together for the event. We had plenty of food (well too much food)! I experienced a new food at this event: Cheesecake Sopapillas! They're awesome!! I need to get the recipe from my friend who made them!

Tons of fun...

By the way, our refrigerator has been repaired.. finally! Yea!

Work and Refrigerators

Carlos and I purchased a new refrigerator back in August. It was so wonderful to finally have a freezer that would actually freeze things. It worked like a dream.... for a few months. Now, not only does our freezer not freeze, but our entire refrigerator has decided that it doesn't want to work at all. I guess it would work as a cooler if we packed bags of ice inside of it, hmm...

I'm wondering if the people who are supposed to be repairing (or replacing) our refrigerator realize that as they take their precious time doing whatever they're doing, our food is wasting away, and in the mean time, Carlos and I are going hungry.

I suppose what we really need to do is to go buy a lot of food that does not require refrigeration. We have also been storing some of our food items on our back patio (luckily it's been unusually cold here for NM).

In addition to this story I'd like to share the following:
I was pleased to remember this morning that my job was going to be providing us with breakfast burritos today to celebrate one of my coworkers birthdays. This made me very happy, since we are so low on food at the house. Well upon arriving to work (having not eaten, as I was instructed) I was told that they decided not to order burritos until tomorrow. So... needless to say, I am very hungry! I should learn from this and always, always eat breakfast before coming to work! (or at least take more than an apple with me when I go to work)
