Super Bowl Sunday

Every year we celebrate Super Bowl Sunday at the Kaplan's.  This year was no different!

There was the annual menu planning between Joel and Lynn.  Phone calls and emails flying back and forth to figure out who would make what and who would bring what.  In the end, there was an array of comfort food lining the table on warming trays and with plenty of utensils and plates and forks for all.

This year was a little different however.  Lynn's friend got sick early in the evening and Lynn had to take her to the emergency room.  We didn't realize until after Lynn had left that something was wrong.  They left very quietly.  Her friend was okay in the end, but it was a bit scary and Lynn was texting Richard every so often with updates.

The party continued and Joel turned into the host!  He made sure that the food was being eaten and kept warmed properly and then he cleaned up and didn't really want any help.  I pitched in a bit, but he was really doing it all.  

Meanwhile, on the couch, the wine and beer was flowing and Adina and her girlfriend  were deep into arts and crafts projects at the dining room table.  Even Rudy (the cat) got in on the arts and crafts!
