话说元旦玫瑰碗（Rose Bowl），下午两点在南加州帕萨迪纳开球。通常球赛3个半小时足够了。

晚餐阿立嫂负责，稍微准备了4只杭帮菜，略有调节，为了适应下一代以及阿立三世的米国胃。两只菜已经在家做好，带到小小阿立家，吃前热一下即可。

两只菜最好吃现做的，食材带到小小阿立家。阿立嫂掐着时间，5点半开饭。

谁知来了个加时赛。菜做好了也没心思吃。耐心等待球赛结束，6点了。赶紧开饭！

红烧鲳鱼成双：

清蒸西班牙火腿、冬笋、鲜猪肉、老豆腐：

这次在华人超市买到新鲜冬笋，鲜味更足。谁知下一代米国胃，浅尝即止。阿立三世一口也没吃。

蛋烧肉：

蛋烧肉一大锅，销路也不太好。连同清蒸火腿鲜肉冬笋，咱们又带回鸽子笼。

红烧去壳大海虾：

大海虾事先做好的，只是微波炉加热一下。大海虾最受欢迎。

米国媒体报导蜜大陆军主将布雷克（Blake Corum）：

Pasadena, Calif. — It could not have been a more fitting setting for Michigan running back Blake Corum to set a second career record this season for the program when he scored on a 17-yard touchdown in overtime of the Rose Bowl national semifinal against Alabama on New Year’s Day.

Corum's touchdown proved to be the difference in the Wolverines' 27-20 victory to earn a spot in the College Football Playoff championship. With the touchdown, Corum set the Michigan career rushing touchdown record, breaking Anthony Thomas’s (1997-2000) record of 55 rushing touchdowns.

"He was not going to be denied," Michigan running backs coach Mike Hart said after the game. "That’s what I told (the coaches), just give (No.) 2 the ball.  If you give 2 the ball, we’ll be fine.  He’s a dog. Give him the ball."

When the season started, Corum, a team captain and two-time Big Ten Running Back of the Year, He had 31 touchdowns, 24 from tying Thomas’ record. Heading into No. 1-ranked Michigan’s matchup with No. 4 Alabama, Corum’s 24 rushing touchdowns set a Michigan single-season record. He leads the nation in total touchdowns this season.

On the first play in overtime, Corum followed left guard Trevor Keegan for an eight-yard gain.

“He was just trusting our guards pulling," Keegan said. "I saw everything was all clogged up on that one play, bounced it outside and he followed me. I don’t know what happened on the next one when he scored, I just heard it. He’s just a special guy. You could see there’s something in his eyes. He was going to get everything done. He was gonna get it in there for us."
