So the Super Bowl was last night, and one of Jason's favorite things to do during the game is eat.  He made his preferred list of goodies last week, and I spent a bit of Sunday afternoon preparing said food items. 

We had a quiet Super Bowl party at home, and even with just the three of us, the football dishes we got as wedding gifts 10 years ago came in handy yet again. 

Pretzel Bites - recipe

Pizza Sticks - recipe

Buffalo Style Hot Wings (I used any'tizers - similar recipe here)

My pizza sticks didn't turn out very pretty, but they tasted great and Katherine loved them.  She also loved our "party" of three. 

The Super Bowl is the "national holiday" that I just don't get that excited about.  Oh well.  Everyone enjoyed themselves; Jason in the basement watching the game and Katherine upstairs watching PJ Masks. 

Did January creep by for anyone else?  I was so ready for Valentine's Day when I realized we still had a whole week left of January.  (Disclaimer:  this post was originally supposed to be posted IN January.)

--I saw this video on Grace's blog last week and it pretty much sums up my feelings right now.


--Feeling a little depressed with the overwhelming political climate of social media recently?  Read this post from Becky.

--This week, I took Katherine to preschool yoga class.  She actually really liked it and it helped her be calm for about 5 minutes, until she threw a massive fit when it was time to leave.

--I've recently fell into the LuLaRoe trap.  On a whim I bought these Valentine's leggings from Elisha, and much to my surprise they were crazy soft and stretchy. 

--Speaking of stretchy, I'm 13 weeks pregnant this week and I'm so ready for the first trimester sickness to be gone.  So far, this pregnancy has mirrored my first almost exactly.  I've been so tired and sick for weeks.  Cravings?  Just sleep.  But I did find these Girl Scout cookie cereals at Target this week.  I'll have no trouble gaining that pregnancy weight now. 

--Jason's made his menu preferences for the Big Game this weekend, and all I can do is think about how nauseating chicken is to me right now.  Hopefully I'll be able to make his wings without yacking.  Our menu includes:  BBQ Lil' Smokies, Buffalo chicken wings, pretzel bites, pizza sticks, and a dip of some kind. 

What are you making for the Super Bowl?
