What would Christmas Eve be without tacos? I didn’t want to find out, so we headed up to Taqueria El Gallo in Medford after an afternoon of ice skating in Ashland. El Gallo was empty except for us. The tacos were great. I had two al pastor and two carnitas.

Last night we went to see the theater production of It’s A Wonderful Life at Barnstormer’s Theater in Grants Pass. It was a good show. But what I really found captivating was that one of the actors said in his blurb in the showbill that he wished he could take all the audience out for tacos after the show. Needless to say, after the show, we went down to the green room to look for him and take him up on the offer. He was not to be found. He must have heard that the Taco Matrix was in the house and feared that his wallet was in danger!

Happy New Year everybody! A fun activity that I like to do is eat tacos on December 31st, then again on January 1st. A perfect way to end and begin the year.
