Well, St Patrick's Day fell on a Thursday this week and with Dana working, that means the kids and I have leftovers or pizza, if they have eaten their dinner during the week. Since it was St Patrick's Day, I figured we would just have pizza. Some day, when their tastes have expanded a little, we will be able to get vegetarian or meat lovers or Chicago style pizza, but tonight it was the traditional 1/2 pepperoni and 1/2 Hawaiian. Andrew eats the pepperoni and Delaney eats the Hawaiian. Neither is bad, but a little variety
would never hurt either.
I also watched the NCAA basketball tournament tonight. The first round (and it still is the first round contrary to what the NCAA marketing machine wants me to believe) is always fun for me because the big schools can't ditch the little guys any more, or agree to play them only if they travel and play on their home floor with their fans. Yes there are some blow outs, but normally the games are close and one or two of the little guys send the big schools home shaking their heads in disbelief. By the second weekend of the tournament, I have generally lost interest. If there is an underdog left, I cheer for them.
My pick this year is for Ohio State to win the whole thing. I know, after all that talk about cheering for the little guy, I pick Ohio State. I can cheer for "Cinderella" but when I put my money into the pool, I want to have a fighting chance of winning.
