angledgeWhat a day, what a day. Usually hotpantsgalore & I would be gearing up for a Super Bowl party this morning. But HPG had to work today in order to get a day off later this week for our trip to Denver. So when my co-worker D* invited us to his SB Party, we accepted. When he challenged us to compete in the Super Chili Bowl cook-off, we accepted that as well. So this morning, our house smells spicy & savory - a Crock Pot full of beef, tomatoes, onions, & peppers (as well as a whole load of semi-secret ingredients, like masa, beer, & cocoa powder) has been simmering overnight. The beef is falling-apart tender, but the spice alarm is a bit high. We'll have to tone that down a bit, probably with more masa, more cocoa powder, maybe a bit of molasses. Serve it with cheese & sour cream.
Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow this morning, meaning he's predicting six more weeks of winter. He should've been here in Houston, because we have rain & light fog & no sun whatsoever. Good luck casting a shadow in that. In any case, six more weeks of winter doesn't sound too good after the hard winter most of the country has had, so here's hoping the little rodent is wrong again.
I... missed church this morning. Or rather, I'm getting ready to miss church. We're doing a service today based on Shakespeare, & while I admire the creativity, I'm not really excited by the idea. And it's raining. And I'm messing with the chili. And Shadeaux is being cuddly.
You see how these things go. Not the greatest start to my term as deacon. I'll do better next week. Oh wait, no I won't, I'll be in Denver. NEXT week.
Ten years ago, the Super Bowl fell in February for the first time. I remember being somewhat annoyed by that - how much more can we stretch out the NFL season?? I was also a tad embittered about the game - the Eagles had made it to the NFC Championship Game only to be embarrassed by the Carolina Panthers, losing 14-3. But I still had made plans to watch.
However, those plans were derailed two days before the game when my gall bladder decided to call it quits. I missed the American-expat Super Bowl party, but I did get to spend 2 1/2 days zonked out on morphine. It's hard to believe that was ten years ago.
