January 13, 2015 Canandaigua Connected ENewsletter 

I seem to come clean about a lot these days in this newsletter. So I guess its time to tell you I'm not into watching football. I know, I know. It's un-American to not be into it. But, here's the good news. I've found a way to make it work. I make friendly wagers with those who are into being spectators and it makes the whole thing WAY more enjoyable. I asked my husband and son how many points I needed for the Seahawks game (14 was perfect) and I used to live in Indy so betting the Colts to win was a no brainer. Dinners are now coming to me from both games! Football CAN be quite wonderful if it means less cooking! Bring on the Playoffs & Superbowl!

Blue Skies, Donna Bennett
