# 19, # 20 and # 25

19. Use the crockpot for dinner sixty times (3/60)
20. Try at least two new recipes a month (6/68)
25. Get together with friends once a month (6/34)

Super Bowl Sunday. Kristin, Christine and Tedd came over to watch the game. Geoff and I prepared a wide selection of food (and by prepared, I mean a good portion of it was gathered from various restaurants). One thing that I did make was Betty Crocker's Family Style Chili in the slow cooker. It came out pretty well, and I hope to make it again sometime soon. (Today would have been perfect, with the massive snow storm and everything, but I just didn't think of it early enough.) Geoff also made Potato Chip Chicken, which is a new recipe (for us), but since I didn't have any hand in making it, I'm not counting it towards my list.

I really hope that our new place is as company friendly as this apartment has been (the closer we get to moving, the more I realize how much I am going to miss it here).

86. Get a new laptop

With the move coming up (by the end of this month), and the influx of pictures that I am expecting (as well as the hard drive space that they will require), Geoff and I were able to arrange a deal by turning in our old computers for two new laptops. I am still in the process of setting up the computer exactly how I want it, and I haven't had a chance to install my camera software yet (hopefully that will happen today, I have a ton of pictures that I want to get off my camera), but I now have a ton more space for photos, and a much faster processor. Windows 7 is also pretty nice, but to be honest, I never had a problem with Vista. I am now just waiting for Office 2010 to come out before I bother with that (I just hope that I don't have a need before then).

One more down!

# 45

45. Have a monthly date-night with Geoff (6/34)

On Saturday night, Geoff and I went to see the New York City Ballet's production of The Sleeping Beauty. The evening started out with a wonderful dinner at Josephina's before we headed over to the theatre. The show itself was amazing, and I am so glad that we were able to make it (and that we had something special to celebrate, since it probably wouldn't have happened otherwise). We both know that this was the last date night that we will have on this scale for a while, so I am so glad that it turned out as well as it did.

I was disappointed when I realized that I didn't have go to the ballet on my list, obviously an over site while I was making it. I guess that will just have to be something that I add to my next list (if I remember two years from now).
