My Super Bowl Sunday - Dinner and a Movie

Every Super Bowl Sunday for the last umpteen years my girlfriends and I have gone out for dinner and a movie. We have no interest in the game and can't even be bothered to pretend we do. (Side note - I did want the Saints to win - I live in Cleveland for God's sake - gotta root for the underdog, the Cinderella story, and any other tired sports cliche you can think of!)

So this year on Super Bowl Sunday we went to Dewey's for great salads and awesome gourmet pizza and then we went to see Crazy Heart.

First things first - Dewey's is a really great neighborhood pizza place. I was quite surprised when I went to their web site to find out it is a chain, albeit a small one. The owner is from Cincinnati and there are locations in Cincinnati, Dayton, Cleveland Heights, Columbus, northern Kentucky and St. Louis. If you are reading this and you live in any of these areas and you haven't been to Dewey's, do yourself a favor and go.

Now about Crazy Heart - I just don't get all the hype.


Don't get me wrong - I thought Jeff Bridges did a great job and I can't wait to buy the soundtrack - the music was really good. But other than that the movie was slow and totally predictable. Maggie Gyllenhaal was down right annoying. But I will say one thing - it was better than watching the Super Bowl.

I'm just saying.
