Scenes from Superbowl Sunday

We didn’t do anything too crazy. The older I get the happier I am with staying in, warm and snuggly on the couch with my man and my home cooked treats. I made a big pot of chili with all the fixins. Do you have a go to chili recipe? I do and it never, ever disappoints (thank you, Ms. Martha). And something you should know about me is that I love toppings! I can’t get enough of them. I dump crumbled up tortilla chips, shredded cheese, a dollop of sour cream, pickled jalapenos, cilantro and lime juice all on top of my chili. A little crazy I know, but it makes me oh so happy. How about you? Any festive gatherings or fun events surrounding the big game?

As a maker of ads I feel I should weigh in on my opinion of the commercials. My two faves:

This one for Google made me cry. So sweet.

This was also awesome. One of my best friends and former work partner made it. I am so proud!

    Adored the Google commercial – played elegantly with my heartstrings! We had some people over and I made a big pot of authentic jambalaya (thanks to a recipe from Mark Bittman’s blog), naan pizza, chips and salsa, and chocolate mousse parfaits for dessert! Needless to say, we were all rooting for the Saints and had a great time devouring our feast!

    I love the google commercial, though I missed it the first time around.

    We had people over and I cooked lots of goodies… our guests brought their kiddos so it was a little too hectic to watch all the commercials. Thanks for posting these!

    Heh… that second commercial. I love how they try to pass those cars as being awesomely clean. But as I say, if people didn’t pollute and didn’t believe in environmental friendly cars and things like that, I wouldn’t have a job :p

    I didn’t watch this year, so I missed out on the commercials. Thanks for sharing the Google one though, it’s so sweet.

    First of all, yum! That looks perfect. And yes, that Google ad was genius.

    The chili looks great!

    I work in a study abroad office, so there was a TON of buzz about the Google commercial at work today. :)
