Well, I just pulled up last year’s New Year’s Resolutions & realized I can reuse them for this year as I only accomplished two out of my sixteen resolutions; I kind of learned how to play chess and I played competitive singles tennis – not very well, but I did it. Ugh!! I’m always talking to the kids about setting goals and I’m setting a very poor goal setting example. So this year I’m going to resolve to conquer all of the rest of my unresolved resolutions!
In the meanwhile, the Super Bowl will be here before you know it and I have two new sandwich concoctions that are perfect football fare. I tweaked the Southern Living Hot Roast Beef Party Sandwich recipe to come up with a Hot Ham Party Sandwich recipe and a Hot Turkey and Cranberry Party Sandwich. So easy to make and super scrumptious – the perfect snack to eat while watching the Seattle Seahawks win the Super Bowl again!
