I'm not much of a football girl
I know
That makes me unamerican right?
I also HATE apple pie
But I do like baseball
Redemption!?
I feel like I did my part and put in my time
The whole first season that we were dating I sat my ass on the couch next time The Boy and watch EVERY SINGLE GAME
Every one
Even college
I was even thinking of borrowing my sisters "Football for Dummies" book to try and get myself into it more
But I just can't do it
It stops every 5 freakin seconds and I can't handle it
At least basketball (which I like to watch) keeps moving the entire time
The only thing good about football is the parties and dip
I like dip
My simple disinterest in it has now turned to disdain
See, The Boy comes from a big football family
His parents have season tickets and the whole family is alllll about it
They teased me in the beginning of our relationship about not liking it and I could take the jokes for a while...and then....
It just got old!
I remember one time over text they asked The Boy if he had seen a specific play
He told them no because I was watching something on the TV
They said that I should get back to my baking and mending so he could watch the football game
Call me a Sensitive Sally.....but that was kind of it for me
I just totally checked out of any effort I was thinking of putting in
At least I bake well ;)
And I can mend the shit out of a pair a pants
When was the last time watching football for hours resulted in an awesome cake and handmade gifts?
I'm gonna go with NEVER!
haha
I win.
(can you sense some slight bitterness? haha)
But in typically Busy Broad fashion football season was just another excuse to make a wreath
One even The Boy would love
Look HERE for a tutorial on how I make most my wreaths
I did this one the exact same way
After the basic form was done I made the Cardinals logo out of foam
And glued some cardboard to the back for sturdiness
Then just glued it on along with some little footballs I got for 59c over on the wood aisle in Michael's
This is about as close as I get to going all Rah Rah for football
