Dear Dave,
So,
are you a Super Bowl fan, Oscar fan
or both???
Our house is definitely on the Oscar
side. We go to or host a small
Oscar party every year, and all of
our friends vote on all 24
categories. We enjoy "Oscar movie
food" and always have prizes for
the winners.
BTW, what day is the Super Bowl??? :)
Don't hate us in the Vancouver lower
mainland, as we are seeing welcome
signs of Spring!
Have fun
rooting for your favourite team, movie
or actor!
