Weekend Wrap Up

This weekend was the big game kids! AFC Championship - Go Pats!!

We did it!! NOPE.

Sadly my fellow Bostonian roomies sulked in a corner with me as our sole Baltimore transplant celebrated on the other side of the room with her fellow Ravens fans. It was a disappointing and unexpected loss...at least hockey's back?

Luckily this weekend was filled with other wonderful treats like movies, lazy puzzle days, family get togethers, bridal party bonding, seeing Pippin (get tickets immediately), and delicious football foods.

Hope you all had a good (long) weekend too!

• Rocking a parachute - as close as I'll ever get to skydiving • Lazy puzzle day • A night at the theater •
• Tapas make the best bridal party bonding meal • Seriously you have to see Pippin • BBQ feast with the extended family •
• Got my game face on (my lucky gear didn't work!) • One of many football treats •

Weekend Recap

Rabbit Rabbit

Rabbit Rabbit! Happy October everyone!!

This weekend was one of my beloved three day weekends and I wasn't going to let the incessant rain stand in my way. As you can probably tell from the pictures, the weekend was mostly food themed (as are most of my activities) and I couldn't be happier about it.

Other than the little snag of Oktoberfest being postponed a week -womp womp- because I seemed to be the only one interested in eating and drinking outside in the rain I fit it in lots of other fall goodness.

On the agenda:

• Discovering the best brunch place ever
• Fluffernutters!! Union Square hosted their annual "What the Fluff Fest" (Somerville invented Fluff - you're welcome America)
• Introduced the fam to my favorite Tapas place
• Had anxiety attacks over the Patriots
• Cooked a feast all day with my Mama Dukes (roast chicken and homemade apple pie are what dreams are made of)

Now I think I need to reacquaint myself with the gym put on gym clothes and get distracted by TLC this week to work off all the food goodness.



Super Bowl XLVI – Go Pats!

Super Bowl Sunday's just around the corner and I couldn't be more thrilled that my Patriots are at the top once again! Not only do I get to "coach" the players by yelling at them through my TV but this Sunday also presents the opportunity to indulge in good food and drinks at parties. I've been busy collecting some of my favorite recipes to make for the big day (buffalo chicken dip and pizza roll ups top the list). Here are some of my favorite parts of Super Bowl Sunday:

Save Ferris! Super Bowl commercials are like a sport themselves and

even though it's a car commercial but I still can't get enough of Matthew Broderick back as Ferris.

Nothing like a little team spirit. (If I see Giants

gear anywhere you will be promptly removed from my home.)

Frank's Red Hot Buffalo Chicken Dip. Trust me, this dip will change your life.

I've never tried these before but they seem quick, easy, and

like the perfect football food so that's good enough for me!
