Gracious Rain

Now, it’s no big secret that many in our family dropped off the Superbowl wagon train a while back, as the players became increasingly disrespectful to the American flag and our country.

Nope, never going to have room for that sort of thing.

However, after careful observance we did notice that the main players were becoming a lot more patriotic and some even promoted Christianity openly. Well, well, well. You have my attention.

So it is with guarded optimism that we prepared for Superbowl this year–at long last.

Now, the FOOD. You may notice immediately, a distinct lack of….ummm…shall we say…

junk food?

Yes, it’s true. After all, if I intend to live forever–which I do–then I decided to act a bit more like it with the snacks.

I made seasoned lean hamburger with mustard and chopped pickles. Yum.

Tried my hand at Deviled Eggs. They were luscious–that is until I got an egg shell and it wrecked the whole experience. Gak. But before that…yum.

Ranch cucumbers and peanut butter celery. Yum.

Lastly, kiwi with raspberries and Cheddar Pickles. When I said they are addicting…I wasn’t kidding. Yum and double yum.

Since the snacks are usually the best part of the event–it’s what I decided to focus on–since the game turned out to be kinda dreadful…for Patriot fans anyway. Without Tom Brady, what’s to watch? Haha.

I could be scooching over to the Seahawks any day now. We’ll see.

In the meantime, I was thoroughly entertained….

with the food.
