February

It is the shortest month, so it's okay that I feel like I have been in whirlwind the whole time... right?

A few highlights of the month:

1. My AWESOME Valentine's Day dinner party. Everything turned out well (miracle) and I think everyone had a good time.
It's a miracle what a few hours in the oven can do.






2. My mom is the best mom in the whole world and even though her Valentine's Day package didn't get to me until 10 days after the fact, I still think she's great.

... which leads me to number 3...

3. I am sorely disappointed with Dove. I have already been let down by Martha Stewart, but it has gone too far.

I LOVE Dove dark chocolates and when I eat them I want a love related fortune, not this:

4. To counteract all the chocolate I rediscovered cross-country skiing and had a blast. (and the soreness that I felt helped me appreciate those Olympians who literally fly across the snow.)

So, overall a short, but fun-filled month. I am hoping that March will bring some slightly (or not so slightly) warmer temperatures.

At a loss for... food?

The Superbowl is on Sunday, and I happened to be invited to a party which, oddly enough, led me to a predicament that I did not expect- What kind of food do you bring to a Superbowl party? Not only do I have to admit that I have never attended a Superbowl party, but I cannot remember ever even watching the game.

Help!
