Super Bowl Party

Every year, Dad and I have a Super Bowl Party. It’s a joke. It’s just me and Dad. I make hot wings and some other game-day food. This year, I made a bean dip, Bacon Jalapeno Popper Egg Rolls, and hot wings. The food was good but all I wanted to do was eat and eat and eat some more. Ugh.

About the Super Bowl…I am not a football fan at all. I despise football. I don’t care who wins or who loses. I always take a side though, just for shits and giggles. This year, I chose The Eagles. Yeah, I know. The Chiefs are closer to home but what does that matter? Maybe The Chiefs need to be knocked down a notch or two. Too big for their britches, you might say. So, I chose The Eagles. We know how that game turned out! 22-40 Eagles! Anyway, I didn’t really watch the game. I only watched while we were having our hot wings. In the past, I have only watched for the commercials but somehow in the past few years, the funny or at least amusing commercials have declined. It’s no longer fun to watch.

Anyway, I thought I might share a recipe since I haven’t done that in quite some time. I hope you like it!

Bacon Jalapeno Popper Egg Rolls

8 oz. cream cheese, softened
1 c. shredded cheddar cheese
8 strips of bacon, cooked and crumbled
4 jalapenos, seeds removed and chopped
1 tsp. garlic powder
10 egg roll wrappers (I used more than 10)
Oil, for frying
Ranch, or other dipping sauce

Mix all ingredients until well combined. Working with one wrapper at a time, place a spoonful or two of the jalapeno mixture onto the center of each wrapper. You decide the thickness of your egg rolls. You will get more egg rolls if you use less of the cheese mixture in each roll.

To roll, lightly wet the edges of the wrapper with water. Fold up the bottom corner of the wrapper to cover the filling. Then fold in the right and left corners to the center, pressing lightly to seal. Roll the wrapper tightly until the filling is completely enclosed and the edges are sealed. Fry in hot oil, watching carefully to prevent burning. Drain on paper towels. Serve hot with dipping sauce of your choice.

Well, that’s all for today, friends. Have a great week! 

 

 

How Stupid Can They Get?

I’ve heard some absolutely ignorant things before and I just can’t keep it bottled up anymore! It amazes me how stupid people, commercials, politicians, etc., can be and I’ve decided to make lists here periodically, maybe weekly at the rate these morons are going! So, let’s see how many people I can piss off, shall we?

  1. Regarding Dr. Seuss….Dr. Seuss was NOT cancelled! I wish people would actually read and try to comprehend what they’re reading for once. The publisher, NOT Joe Biden, has pulled 6 titles (titles most of us are unfamiliar with) for racial images that are offensive. The publisher has decided that those books would not be printed anymore. There are still dozens of Dr. Seuss books for you to choose from, in book stores and libraries everywhere, so just stop being stupid!
  2. Ron Johnson…Those rioters on Jan. 6 “were Patriots and were people that loved this country,” he says. Give me a break! Patriots would not have tried to overturn the vote. Patriots would not have attacked this country’s Capitol. Patriots would not have threatened the lives of our elected lawmakers and the Vice President. He says, “and if those tens of thousands of rioters were Black Lives Matter and Antifa protestors, I might have been a little concerned.” Umm… Those rioters whom he called Patriots, battered police with a multitude of weapons: metal flagpoles, baseball bats, wrenches and clubs, and guns, bombs, stun guns and other weapons were also seized. He didn’t feel threatened? He goes on to say that those rioters “love this country, that truly respect law enforcement, would never do anything to break the law, and so I wasn’t concerned…” They respect law enforcement? Really? They wouldn’t do anything to break the law? What fucking planet is this guy from?
  3. Ted Cruz…So, while his constituents and fellow Texans are without power, water, and heat Ted Cruz packs his bags and heads to Cancun for a vacay with his family because their house is “freezing”! Then he tries to cover by saying he was being a good dad. He could have been a good dad by sending his family to Cancun and a good leader by staying to help the people of Texas. He says he was coming right back. Liar, liar. Pants on fire. Do these politicians think we the people of this great country are that stupid? Well, apparently some are but I digress.
  4. Lindsey Graham…Graham says migrant children “are children today but could easily be terrorists tomorrow.” HIS orange leader and his followers attempted a coup of the US government, which resulted in the deaths of at least 4 people, and threatening the lives of elected officials and Graham deflects the blame to poor, tired and ill treated immigrant children? Put a sock in it, you old douchebag.
  5. Hate Crimes against Asian Americans….There’s a special place in hell for people who are blaming Asian Americans for the Coronavirus! Just because that idiot 45 called it the “China virus” does not mean it’s the fault of Asian Americans. Just stop being assholes, please. Stop the violence against these Americans who had nothing to do with the virus in any way, shape, or form!
  6. Black Lives Matter…. For those who still don’t get it, ALL lives won’t matter until BLACK lives matter. Stop the stupidity!
  7. Progressive Insurance…Please discontinue the stupid ass commercial with the half-human half-motorcycle!! It’s not funny. It’s not even slightly amusing. And it makes absolutely no sense. You think it sells your insurance? I’d buy any insurance before I’d buy yours. Just stop.

So, there’s my list for this time around. At the rate things are going I’ll be making a list every damn day. Now, before any of you Republicans jump down my throat because I’m a Democrat and bashing Republicans, tell your fine leaders to think before they speak and we won’t have a problem.
