there�s no party and I�ll cry if I want to

Today, as most of you know, is Super Bowl Sunday (the game is, in fact, on right now). We were supposed to go to a party at a friend�s house to watch the game etc. but with all the snow we got last night/this morning and with him living in a very hilly neighborhood that won�t be plowed until tomorrow, the party has been canceled. The host was preparing large amounts of New Orleans-type food as main courses and the rest of us were supposed to bring the extras. The husband and I were asked to bring dip and whatever else we wanted so we picked up three different kinds of dip, enough produce to make a hefty garden salad for at least 12 people, and this morning I got an early start to my day by making a fresh loaf of challah. The bread certainly won�t go to waste at this house but c�mon man, there�s only so much salad two people can eat before the stuff starts to go bad! And the dip? Forget it. I�m on a diet and my husband doesn�t even eat chips. I wonder what we�ll do with those � the expiration date isn�t until early March so perhaps I�ll have to pick up some chips and then send the unhealthy pairing to work with the husband. People love free food! Although it sucks that I won�t get to debut the new outfit I had planned to wear and some perfectly good rabbit food will go to waste, there IS a silver lining to all of this - at least we don�t have to watch football...
