A Super Bowl First

With apologies to all who are suffering through this never-ending winter in the northeast, I have to reveal that we watched the Super Bowl (great game until the last minute) outdoors! Our next-door neighbors had a game-watching party on their deck and it did not get cool until the fourth quarter. This was surely a first for us. Neighbors brought all the requisite Super Bowl soul foods--chili, barbecued ribs, jalapeño dip, blackeyed peas, and chocolate brownies. Now this is the way to usher in February!
