Helado con higo

Always read the labels in Costa Rica. Today my roommate and I were excited to delve into what looked like mint chocolate chip ice cream on the label picture. When we opened it, we realized that it didn't look quite right and discovered that we were in fact eating fig ice cream. Apparently it's a big thing here, although now that I have had it, I am not sure why. It seems that they could have come up with something better to put in the ice cream.
Other events of the day:

• I bought a papaya for 30 cents.
• Weeds became my new favorite TV show
• THe FDA lifted the ban on cloned meat. We can now eat the same cow year after year. Disturbing? I think so.
• I got sunburnt during class :) (sorry mom)
  
• I added 6 new books (The Economic Naturalist, The Logic of Life, The World Without Us, Animal Vegetable Miracle:A Year of Food Life, Natural Capitalism, and Infidel) to my amazon wish list, cleaned the house, organized Iphoto and all the folders on my computer, turned on my Ipod for the first time- 8 months after I purchased it, and yet I still haven't started my paper thats due tomorrow...
