Super Bowl

I don't like football. I don't go to Super Bowl parties because aside from the food I don't much care so I am bored out of my mind.
I am fortunate to be married to someone who feels the same way. That is always good in a marriage!

But I have to say after the endless shows of food for Super Bowl Sunday I may have to change my mind.

This morning on Good Morning America they showed a food that must have a food group all it's own. PORK. Lots of Pork. OMG I bet this is actually very good. The link below makes it look great! Isn't everything better with bacon? Hell I have friends who are vegetarian and then they will admit after a few cocktails that they cheat sometimes with the dreaded BACON. A life without good slab bacon is just not worth living. I will skip meals for days to have bacon in my life.
Okay I digress...

This actually begins with a bacon weave. No shit. So after you make a 5x5 bacon weave with roughly a pound or a bit more of bacon you add saugage and then bacon again. This sucker is seasoned, rolled and barbequed to perfection - You must check this out it cracks me up and looks delicious.

Now I really do hate these shows today where I heard someone say to "make Salmon for the party because it's less fattening and just as good." Oh really? I say, "Man up or go home! "
Today I also heard, "Don't forget to put out the celery it's good to munch for crunch so you don't eat empty calories." Or this one, " using low fat sauce for your chicken wings".
I say, LISTEN UP IF YOU ARE WORRIED ABOUT CALORIES DON'T EAT ANYTHING AND BRING YOUR OWN DAMN RICE CAKES.

Better yet, IT'S THE FUCKING SUPER BOWL. LIVE A LITTLE.
Isn't this half the fun of the Super Bowl, the beer, the snacks, the screaming for your favorite team? You can diet and go to the gym again on Monday!
Now pass the Lipitor.

Hope your team wins!
