Do Superstitions Sometimes Work?



I guess that most people have superstitions that involve doing a special dance for the snow to come in full force, wearing a lucky hat to take a test, keeping a special penny in their wallets, etc. I make food.

The Ohio State versus Michigan game was a week and a half ago. Of course I dawned my lucky red and wore my lucky buckeye necklace...but special games goo very well along with special food. I think that these buckeye pretzels may be a new staple for Buckeye game days. I got a bunch of pretzels from work that needed to be used and had to find something to do with them. I just melted some peanut butter in one pot and melted some semisweet chocolate chips in another. Then I dipped the pretzels in the peanut butter and then in the chocolate and then let them cool on a wax paper lined cookie sheet. So simple, but very delicious. I put varying amounts of the peanut butter and chocolate on according to different tastes, but I think the ones with a lot of both were the winners. No matter what, the right team won the game and so I guess they all worked. GO BUCKS!

Also, there is a new tradition to put a Tennessee jersey on our kitten, Stella Artois. Stella has a perfect record with this jersey and quite an imperfect record without it. Seriously.. So the Stella Artois bottle wore the UT cozy courtesy of Ashley for the Tennessee versus Kentucky game. Another success! I think I might have found a way to win them all. :-)
