Since we have 2 small kids and my husband is sick we're going to just chill out at home. Tomorrow is my rest day so I'm going to play it safe and get subway for dinner and my daughter and I are going to make low calorie baked chips with corn tortillas and some salsa for a dip. She's 5 and she just said "Mommy lets cut up some tomatoes and make a healthy spinach dip too so we all stay healthy." Is that cute or what? So what is everyone else doing??? Staying home or going to a party and what is on your menu?

GO PACKERS!!!!!!!!!

  • That is cute, obviously you have an impact on her! :) I'm not sure, it's one or two things. Staying at home and watching it with my parents, or going up to friend's house to watch it if he asks me.

    I'm working during it. I'm glad that I won't be at a party with all kinds of food temptations around but upset that I am missing the game.

    Just staying at home and relaxing. Hubby hates sports and though I love football my team isn't in it so it won't be a celebration for me just a game lol. On the menu is pork chops (baked), brown rice, and broccoli.
  • staying in. We are sore losing Falcons fans,..:grumble:

    I am actually working during the Super Bowl, Yeah, right, but on the other hand across from my desk is 60 inch projection tv, and the game will be on, so I wont miss anything.

    My husband and I are not interested in the Super Bowl, so we never go to any party and we either stay home or go out for dinner (it is Sunday after all!), by ourselves. No unhealthy snacks and nothing to be tempted with.

    I'll probably work out tomorrow before I chow down. My husband will miss most of the game like every year, since he has to work. I honestly don't care who wins this Superbowl. I am looking forward to the Halftime show and commercials. Lol!

    I am looking for some healthy snacky stuff we can make for it. I do a low fat taco dip but I am kinda sick of making it. Anyone have some good ideas?

    I am most looking forward to the Black Eyed Peas at halftime! :)

    I will be using my left hand to smack my right hand everytime it reaches for a wing. LOLOL. Hey! my mother always said that everything in moderation is ok. Tomorrow that rule is in full effect. I am also making Red Velvet cupcakes. I will enjoy one. I will be leaving some burned calories at the gym in the AM before kickoff.

    I think we're staying home-with 4 kids, there aren't many parties that welcome them, lol! In past years, we've had friends over, or gone to my sister in laws house, but they are sick this year, and I'm just not in the mood to host, so I think it's going to be a relaxing evening of watching commercials (neither of us are into football, but I do kind of follow the Colts) and eating a grilled something...chicken/pork chops...haven't decided yet.

    I miss the buffalo chicken dip, meatballs, chips and dip etc that I've made in the past...but I'm not going to cave for temptation!
