Quidditch by gilmorec via Flickr

Think quidditch is a game just for Harry Potter fans? Think again. Quidditch is definitely not for couch potatoes. Or the faint of heart. It may be based on a fictional activity but it combines speed, strength, endurance (along with a bit of mischief) and a caliber of athleticism that rivals any mainstream sport.  Read more >

Deviled Eggs

The Super Bowl Countdown ends on Sunday. At that point everyone joins together to watch commercials and eat! Oh, wait, I mean they join together to watch a football game. The Green Bay Packers and Pittsburgh Steelers meet up in Dallas on Sunday to run, throw, kick and pummel each other. That match-up gives you a number of "theme options" outside the pizza, wings, chips, and beer that are thrown at you the moment Super Bowl Party ads go on the radio, newspaper, and TV.  Read more >

Spin Class

I have a friend who is a hard-core athlete. In her spare time she likes to teach fitness classes at a gym. She asked me to go to her spin class the other night. I said "sure," never having gone to a spin class, but thinking it would be a good workout. Like I said, she is hard-core and very competitive. I should have known that she would teach a class that would not be for sissies.  Read more >

Let me state for the record that I have tried, oh have I tried, to understand football.If football passion is contagious, I should have contracted a rabid case long ago. My father, husband and son live and breathe it. For as long as I can remember, weekends during football season have revolved around our teams' schedule. And today, Super Sunday? My husband calls it "the holiest day of the year."Despite having an avid interest in most spectator sports, I just don't get football.  Read more >

This is a fun quiz (if you enjoy quizzes!) to test your IQ. There's a chart at the end that tells you if you should apply for Mensa based on your score. (Take it with a grain of salt. Certainly, Mensa requires more than a 10-question quiz.)  Read more >
