“My idea of a super bowl is a
self-cleaning toilet.” - ecard
Super Bowl Sunday is approaching - the most watched TV show in the US. Must be the Power of the Pointy Ball. In Oklahoma the pointy ball is so mighty that couples use football
schedules to plan their wedding dates. I kid you not.
When I accidently catch a little football on TV, I shudder at
those tackles with visions of Flat Stanley. For a homophobic nation, we sure
like to watch guys lay on top of each other and slap each others’ asses. And, I
want to know, how is it that the last 30 seconds of this game can take 2 hours?
Grrrrrr…..
Personally I’d rather stab my eye out with a sharp knife than
watch football. Or jump out of an airplane without a parachute. Well … unless Johnnie Depp was coming over to watch. And then
I’d happily watch with him. But I’d be hoping he’d make a pass at me with lots of instant foreplays.
I’d let him sack me, of course, with
a whole lot of touchdown there. Sigh.
Well, back to reality…
If you’ll be avoiding the game this year like I'll be, try
having a girlfriends’ party instead. Call it the SOUP-ER BOWL EXCHANGE. Whatever
number of girlfriends you invite, ask them each bring that number of 6-cup
freezer containers of their most delicious homemade soup. When guests arrive, open
and heat one of each person’s containers and set them out as samples. Serve
wine, salad and bread with the soup tasting. Then at the end of the evening
make sure that everyone takes home one of everyone’s containers of soup (like a
cookie exchange). Fun night with a practical take-home goodie!
