Which team will win the Super Bowl on Sunday? There are always some sports fans among my graders who know the score. They know the players and the teams. They even knew the team colors, can you believe that? They all love Tom Brady. My kids think he’s going to be on the winning team.
Well, we shall see. I have a fun little challenge for my classroom kids. Those who predict the winner correctly will win a football sweatband for their wrist. Those that predict incorrectly get to do 12 pushups. And I have lost in years past. It wasn’t pretty watching me trying to do more than 12. So we keep it at 12 pushups.

This easy baked brie has dried cherries and pecans and jam inside. I shape it like a football and then cover it with puff pastry. The recipe for the Baked Brie is HERE. At the Pepperidge Farm Website you can also watch a video on how to make the Baked Brie. It is to die for Yummy as a cracker dip!

I put the letters on with the extra puff pastry. I fill it with raspberry jam, some brown sugar, pecans and dried cherries. I wait to bake it till just before the Super Bowl starts. Triscuits, Pretzel Ritz and Wheat Thins are good with it…..
