I have to admit, I didn’t watch much of the Super Bowl last night.  We had just a couple of friends over to watch (or not watch) the game projected in a 9 foot square on the wall.  Yup, I mostly chatted with the girls in the kitchen, and ate yummy food.

But I did catch some of the commercials, which are ALWAYS the best part of the big game. My favorite has to be this one from Doritos.  Besides the fact that Doritos never last more than a day in my house, I have actually done this to my kids.  Very sad, I have a problem. Anyway… take a look and tell me you haven’t at least wanted to!

The ending of this one from Pepsi Max is worth the whole thing. Although the wife reminds me of a certain First Lady, and her husband who is constantly eating burgers, fries, BBQ, and such.

And then, of course, there’s The Force, by Volkswagon. My kids would go crazy! Of course, they would be dressed like the Fairy Godmother with a magic wand. Also, I may have liked this one because Darth Vader’s Theme used to be the ring tone for my husband. Either way, it’s pretty funny!

Youtube has collected all of the Superbowl Commercials here, where you can watch them all. Pretty cool. Which ones were you’re favorite?

I traveled to Durham, NC to one of the Underwriters Laboratories testing facilities. John, a long-time UL Engineer gave us lessons in fire extinguisher safety, how to use a fire extinguisher, and how they test fire extinguishers. This video proves that safety CAN be fun, with a cameo appearance by Malise, Carolina Mama. Learn more at www.SafetyAtHome.com!
