I may not make any friends with this post — and I may lose some — but if you know me, you also know I don’t like football.  Or baseball.  Or golf or tennis.  But I digress.  Last year we were invited to a Super Bowl party and I declined, sending a veggie tray, spinach dip and beer bread in my place.  Later that evening, I learned I was a pitiful rookie when it came to game time etiquette.  Apparently, it’s not all about the game but rather socializing around the eats and drinks, the premium commercials and flashy halftime show.  So this year I plan to join a few of our neighbors — a batch of homemade lemon (picked from my tree in the backyard) bars and my favorite spirits in hand — to enjoy a bit of camaraderie that the universal language of sports brings out.  Don’t ask me who’s playing, but I can tell you sub sandwiches and chili will be served.  May the best team win!

What’s your favorite part about Super Bowl Sunday?
