Around noon, the power went out in half of the house, and Mom smelled a bit of smoke. It turned out the circuit breaker tripped because the refrigerator had decided it was time to short out and die. Mom and Dad are moving the perishable items to the freezer in the garage as fast as possible, before anything goes bad.

Which Goddess lurks in your soul?

Demeter

You are a true earth warrior! Demeter is the Greek Goddess of the fields, grain and harvest and inhabits those souls who long to be a part of the green. You have a special connection with plants and care deeply for the Earth. You tend to be motherly and protective of those that are in your care and are not above severe aggression when one of your charges is harmed or threatened.

ETA: Ha! Mom solved the problem of what to do with the tea, milk, and orange juice. She just put the jugs in the garage, and left them there. The garage is colder than the fridge.
