A Giant Win!!

Day 35

My losing streak is over. After 2 years of paying up I finally get paid. I'm hoping this turns my luck around. Granted I wasn't invested in this team. I just bet on the opposing team to whatever Rez (my bf) picked. He like the quarter back Aaron Rogers so he went with the New England Patriots, which left me with Eli Manning and the Giants. I'm not going to break down the whole game for you, especially since I spent most my time in the kitchen making homemade gluten-free pizza. I'll go over that fiasco later. While a majority of the game was entertaining nothing made me use my Tivo for a replay like some of the commercials did. The M & Ms commercial was the best in my opinion. Finally there was some creativity this year.



When we reached half-time I was not only disappointed that my team was losing, but also that the half-time show did nothing to cheer me up. I thought Madonna was the icon for female empowerment so why did she lip-sync and dance around like Brittney Spears during her shaved head days. It was awkward to watch. A wardrobe malfunction would have made it bearable.

Luckily the game kept me entertained to the very end. As the Giants got a touch down in the last minute of the game I was overwhelmed with hope once again. The Patriots had the ball as the clock slowly ran out. The game ended in the end-zone as the clock hit 0:00 with an incomplete. I couldn't believe I had won a bet. I waited to make sure there weren't any flags that went up to take away my victory. Then came the confetti. I won, I won, I won!!! I jumped up and down and did my obnoxious victory dance that was a little rusty from so many losses. So I just want everyone to know that I'm one venti non-fat, no-foam, no-water chai richer.

Unfortunately the whole day wasn't a win. My gluten-free pizza fumbled. The dough had a chewing gum quality. One bite and 20 chews. Oh well. I gave the leftovers to my sis because she is trying to go gluten-free. She must have a lower standards. Gluten-free or not I'm not eating that pizza again. Today was my day off this week from my hypoallergenic diet so I also made normal amazing pizza. Chicken bbq with all the trimmings. Touchdown.

Winning. Bets anyone?


in a tupperware & off you go gluten-free
