Introduction


Can each day be headlined by a word (or two) and represented by a single sentence?

Will they, in turn, weave together to form a tapestry of the year?

It may be more mundane than momentous, but it’s mine to share.

Midnight Feast

Superbowl Sunday starts late in the UK with kick-off just half an hour before midnight, so the day is all about preparation, and preparation is all about the food and drink, partly in tribute to the American capacity for over-indulgence and partly as a good way to keep me awake into the early hours of Monday morning: so there is beer in the fridge and nuts and nibbles laid out for the first quarter; cheese and biscuits with more beer will see out the second quarter; by the third quarter a more substantial sausage sandwich (aka hot dog) will be required; and for the final quarter I will be dependent on coffee and chocolate bars; and if it goes into overtime I will just get out the corn flakes and have an early breakfast.
