Well, I did it, I made one of your recipes, including embellishments in honor of the Superbowl. It did not however look just like the one in the magazine picture. I bet though, when you made this in your kitchen, you didn't have the same issues as me. I bet you didn't have to interrupt the 'stirring constantly' of the egg white and sugar mixture to go chase away a neighbor dog from the front yard, at the same time threatening your own barking dog that if he wakes your sleeping boy from his nap, there will be trouble. I bet you didn't have two cats circling your feet like sharks trying to convince you that if they didn't get dinner in the next 2 minutes, they would surely perish. I also bet you already knew the technique to cutting mints into football shapes without breaking several, so there was no trial and error period, and I bet at the end of it, your footballs were not only all the same shape, but they probably looked just like footballs. The few white sprinkles you needed were probably pre-sorted for you, and you didn't have to try and find them in the big tub of sprinkles while getting every other color of sprinkles stuck to your frosting covered fingers. So, mine didn't look just like yours, but once you factor in my kitchen handicap, much like you would for golf, it turned out just fine!
