I have a confession to make. I don't like the Olympics.
Anyone still here? You don't hate me for being so un-American?
Don't get me wrong...I'm a big fan of patriotism. I sometimes cry when I hear the Star Spangled Banner at sporting events and I'm diligently trying to teach Mia the pledge of Allegiance. (WITH "God Bless America" at the end....that's how I was taught and that's just how it should be. Period.)
So every 4 years when the Olympics come around I always feel like...this might be the year. Maybe, just maybe I'll get it into this year. And then I don't.
There is a glisten of hope this year...all because of cookies! I got a request for Olympics cookies and it gave me a chance to translate something I don't really love into something sugary and sweet! So maybe I've turned a new leaf and I'm an Olympics fan after all. Or maybe I'm still just a fan of cookies. Either way, GO USA!
And while we're on the topic of confessions....I need to tell you this, too. I DESPISE Shark Week and how everyone gets excited about it. But that's a topic for another day.
USA! USA! USA!
