2011 - Week 6 Cooking

It's a Sunday!  The one with the football game!  Yay!  I used to watch it for the commercials, because I do appreciate a good commercial, however since I have several things in which I try to avoid commercials as if they were the plague, it didn't make sense to me to spend 3-5 hours of my life to watch the commercials, when I care nothing of the content.  Besides, you can generally see them on the internet if you were so inclined to do so.  So I wish your team that you are rooting for the best, but I don't really care that much.  However, I still will be cooking as if it was that game.  Anyways on with the show.
