Super what?

Hosted our first Super Bowl partay! Good friends, good food, good game, good commercials and a very large HD television equals success, n'est ce pas?

So I bought food for 40 (we were 20). Whoopsies! We'll try to fix that for next year. Also was lucky enough to feed my guests some of the best Mac and gruyere and cheddar and fontina (fauncy Mac & Cheese for those of you who have no clue what I'm talkin about) and ceasar salad prepared by none other than infamous chef extraordinaire Danielle Garonce (www.daniellegaronce.com people. DO IT.)

As I was running around like a chicken with my head cut off, I was able to see some of the game but only a few of the commercials. Wanted GB to win (for financial reasons only, cuz I really couldn't give a sh*t) but then felt bad for Omar Epps- coach of the Steelers- when they lost. I'm funny like that. Always feel bad for the losers. Not gonna win the SB with so many turnovers Omar.

I mean, really?


A quick pause to discuss the half-time show. K, I'm just going to say it. And I'm virtually protecting my head as I do imagining tomatoes flying at it. I LIKED IT. As did the other people (ok, mostly ladies) who watched it with me. EB, you know you liked it too. I'm being defensive as the internets the following day were bashing the show hard core. We loved it! We were all bopping along, thinking it was awesome! Loved the BEPs! Fergie didn't even look as fugly in the face as she usually does! K, the Tron like get ups were a bit veerd and yes it did look like the Olympics (but soooooo much better!!!) but we were super entertained!!! When Slash popped up, I might have shed a lil tear! And then Usher! Anyhooo, we thought it was very cool.

X-tina effing up the national anthem is a whole other story.

Commercials.

SO many B-list celebs this year. Strange a bit. Richard Lewis, Timothy Hutton, Joan Rivers and Roseanne? Who else was thrilled to see her taken out by a massive log?

Totally grossed out by the Go Daddy ads. I mean, really? Do boobs really sell domain names, web hosting and everything in between? K, maybe.

The Volkswagen marketing peeps are obviously brilliant. The Darth Vader commercial was great. Saw it prior to the SB. This one was amazing too:



Budweiser. I mean, anything with an Almost Famous reference is gonna get me.



Bridgestone. Actually laughed out loud.



Chevy Cruze. Awwwwwwwwww...



Loved the above but I have 2 favourites:

1) Bing. Actually burst out laughing.



2) And NFL, this was sooooo goooooooood: Seinfeld, 90210, Happy days, Family Guy, Sopranos, The Office, Dukes of Hazard, Friends, South Park, Erkel, Modern Family, Simpsons... etc. Just watch.



Mmmmmmmmmm.....Football cake!! We loved it EBM!


Thank god football is over. At least for a little while :)
