Wow, guys. Just...wow. How about that game yesterday, huh? Hoo boy!

Yessir, it would have been hard to predict THAT outcome!

Much like it would have been hard to write this post two days ago because I had to catch up on Downton Abbey urgent things to do on Sunday. Or maybe my power went out. It could have. YOU DON'T KNOW. [poker face]

Alright, look, it's long been established that sports fans speak their own language. And I'm not judging! Dude, I once wore a Bajoran earring and Starfleet insignia. TO HIGH SCHOOL. So believe me, I'm not gonna say word one if you guys want to call it the:

Or if you believe you've contracted:

(Just tell me there's no lancing involved. At least not the icky kind. Actual lancing with horses and knights and stuff would be kind of awesome.)

And I'll only snicker a little when you cheer on your:

"Fire at will, Number One! It's evacuating the rear exhaust ports!"

And hey, just because "The kich 15 good" means nothing to me, that doesn't mean I respect you sport people any less!

I'll just respond with a little "Darmok and Jalad at Tanagra" and we'll call it even!

After all, you guys have your "Patrits:"

And your "Gaints Beat Patroits:"

And we have Tribbles and Reavers and Sith lords. (Oh my!)

You score "Toachdowns:"

Or "Tochdowns:"

And we reconfigure the programming on our Kobayashi Marus.

Which, just for the record, is NOT CHEATING.

See what I mean? We're basically all the same! We all have our passions, and our quirks, and sometimes - SOMETIMES - we all make mistakes.

But seriously, guys, I have no idea what you're talking about. Can someone translate this into Klingon for me?

Hey Mary M., Melissa M., Lynn H., Dan H., Erin W., Amber G., Molly S., Jessica S., Sara J., & Janette R., lupDujHomwIj lubuy'moH gharghmey! So I hope you like sushi.

Sunday Sweets: Super Bowl

You may remember from last year's Super Bowl Sweets that we the CW team know almost as much about sports as we do about weasel neutering.

So...

WHO'S READY FOR SOME FOOTBAAAAAAAAAAAALL?!?!

(The Super Bowl IS football, right? Oh, good.)

I watch the Super Bowl every year - despite my lack of sports knowledge - just because I get to eat glorious piles of delicious junk food:

Mmmm...Oooonion riiings...

I love the Seussian details; it looks like it's straight out of Green Eggs and Junk Food!

It's a fact that Super Bowl parties are the only place where it's entirely acceptable, nay, expected!, to eat a whole bag of potato chips by yourself.

RRRRuffles have RRRidges made out of fondant, and they're amazing.

The only way I know this isn't a real bag of chips is how full it is. Usually when I open a bag, it's 75% air, 15% chip crumbs, and 10% greasy-fingered shame.

Of course, no Super Bowl party would be complete without a heaping stack o' wings:

Now, I know what you're thinking: those are real wings on cake, which is disgusting. I thought the same thing. So we called the baker in Tempe, AZ and asked her. Turns out they're made of fondant! Un-Be-Freakin'-Lievable.

I just remembered that this is supposed to be a football post.

Fine. Here.

By Mike's Amazing Cakes

Seriously, Mike. Did you steal a piping bag from Warehouse 13?

[Ok, so we *might* have just given you a clue why we know nothing about football.]

BACK TO THE FOOD!

Hey, you know what goes great with sports for which you care nothing? Pizza!

It's pretty rare to see a pizza box cake. I love it. And check out the little mushrooms!

Now I know what you're thinking: what am I gonna drink with all this junkfood, water? What do I look like, a health nut? What am I, a fish?!

No! You're an American!

You drink BEER!

Unless, of course, you're NOT an American. In which case:

You drink LAGER!

The bottles and ice on both cakes are made of sugar. Total homerun!

Ok, I know what you're all waiting for. After all, you can't have the Super Bowl without some bone-crunching, cheerleading, touch-downing, grass-staining, FOOTBALL.

... INTERRUPTING COMMERCIALS!!

Personally, the commercials are my favorite part of the Super Bowl. Like the Mighty Anheuser-Busch Clydesdales!

By CakeCentral user mmmcake0072

D'awww. Who's a mighty widdle clydesdale?! It's you, it's you!

Ahem.

Okay, okay, we probably need to talk about football or... something.

So, the New England Patriots are playing.

By Chocmo Cakes

And I'm pretty sure they'll win because this cake is very tall and majestic.

Also, the New York Giants are playing:

Although I hear blue balls are hard to run with.

[innocent smile]

And so, it is with a heavy heart and a full stomach that we bring this post to an end, with one final, majestic nod to the ol' pig skin:

By Swen's Homemade Cake

Have a great Super Bowl Sunday everybody!

Or, ya know, just a Sunday.
