Worst. 'Blogger'. Ever

Seriously. I am. How do I go to a super bowl party filled with delicious food and fail to take any pictures? Alas, overall it was a great night, albiet a boring game. The boys played some music and the girls played with the puppy.

Here is a quick run down of what we noshed on-

• Spicy vegetarian chili (could have been vegan but we all pilled on cheese and sour cream) served out of the prettiest crock pot I have ever seen.

Target

• Big veggie tray with dill dip and olive oil crackers.

Stonewall Kitchen

• BBQ chicken nachos. 

If you have never had these go out and make them right now. They are super simple, probably too simple for safety. Layer chips, chicken covered in Sweet Baby Ray's sauce and a healthy amount of cheddar cheese and melt in the oven.

• Brownies and cookie cake from Publix.

• Drinks from Sweet Water Brewery. 

Sorry for the poor resolution.


Hope everyone's Superbowl Sunday was fun and safe!




Until next time I will leave you with these nuggets of wisdom:

1.  I have a soft spot in my heart for the Publix Bakery. The fudge brownies cannot be beat.
2. Want to know a secret from my time spent as a cater waiter- Publix makes the best wedding cakes. Don't believe me? Fine, but next time you are at a wedding where the cake actually tastes good and not like it has sat out for 3 days with 8 people touching it, it is from Publix, promise. 

Interesting Thought

Family and blogs. Friends and blogs. Who do you want to read yours? This topic has popped up a couple times in the last two days so I thought I would bring it up for discussion. That means all 3 of you should comment! It will be fun, promise.

I feel like blogging is inherently narcissistic. I mean come on, its basically saying "HEY look at me I am cool and interesting and you should want to read about my life!" But if that is cool with you (which it clearly is with moi) then you need to decide who you want sharing your life via the internet. Meaning, who do you want to read it? What do you want to get out of it? Is it an outlet? A place to share? But what if you decided to keep it separate from your real life friends and family and then someone finds it? Or you decide you want people to know?

I started my blog with the desire for my friends and family to read it (and not just because they are the only people who care enough to do so). But, some of my friends didn't start off with the same intention. I have one friend in particular whose parents recently discovered her blog and started making nasty comments. It is a perfectly clean blog, a good mix of humor, wit, and snark. In short, everything I love about this girl. I am super bothered that her parents are being so negative.

On the flip side I just started reading a new healthy living blog (it is more of a weight loss journey but the girl is just so cool, can we be friends? please?) Until recently she hadn't told any/ many of her 'real life' friends about One Twenty Five. I wonder if she is way more open because of that?

I wonder what I would write/ do if I hadn't told any of my friends and family about this blog.

What about you? What would you do differently if you intended to keep your bloggy life separate from your 'real life'?
