I admit unless there is a team I really like I mainly watch the Superbowl for the commercials. Thanks to a now 11 year old young man, this year I watched the game with just as much interest as the commercials. Last week someone I have the privilege of working with from United Way, asked if I would make a cake for a friend of hers. Of course I said yes (how could I say no to something I love doing so much). She said it was a simple cake, it needed to be a Pittsburgh Steelers Jersey and drew the design on a sticky note. Being a Buffalo Bills fan I am very familiar with our neighbors the Pittsburgh Steelers and their trademark Black and Gold uniforms. However I must admit I have not paid much attention to the team since, oh (I am about to date myself) say the 70's. So with interest I tuned into the Superbowl this year to see how the Steelers were dressed on the field. Needless to say it did not take me long to observe the white jerseys with gold stripes near the shoulder and gold name and numbers outlined in black. So after observing the details I needed for young Mr. Gaddy's cake I watched the Superbowl and I must say thank you. Without this assignment I might have missed a really great game.
I understand that the cake was for a surprise party at church tonight. I hope his 11th birthday was as great as this year's Superbowl.
