Super Bowl

Super Bowl Sunday is such an interesting day in our country. Masses of people flock to the grocery store to buy snack food, hourds of pizza is delivered and thousands of people gather around their TV's to watch football. What is interesting to me is the togetherness this sporting event brings. So many friends and family gather to watch the game and cheer on their team.


I feel I am a minority on this day. I have no desire to watch the Super Bowl. I do enjoy the commercials, but don't feel a void in my life if I miss them. Tonight the Super Bowl was playing on our tv. For the first quarter my family, minus me, watched the game and laughed at the commercials. By the third quarter some of us were napping others were playing Angry Birds on the IPad. Nobody was paying attention to the game. I will say, I enjoyed Will I Am. There it seems I am the minority as well. 


Now I can happily say good bye to football season. And HELLO baseball. Maybe the Mariners will be worth watching this year.


RANDOM FACT:  The Super Bowl--it was named after the Super Ball.  


Tonight I am thankful for old recipes. Dinner tonight was an old standby. The boys had never had it. It was yummy.
