Today is Sunday~and that means football at my house! I am a big Chicago Bears fan, I take after my Mom! She loved her Bears!!! Bob, Jolene, Sophie, (Jolene's 10 year old daughter~not really a football fan, yet!), and hopefully Andrew, (my youngest son(20)) are all coming over for brunch and football!!! My lovely husband and son Cody have been straightening p for me. It is weird to sit and watch, but comforting in some odd way! Rick and Tim (my 31 year old son) are not football fans either, so I imagine Rick and Sophie will watch TV in my room, Tim will sit out here with us~and we have to lock up Bear~our 7 year old BRATTY dog. There is a lot of celebration when there is a good play, and Bear very much disapproves! So today a munchy recipe everyone loves!!!~~~Chex Mix!
