I made a small pot of like a Jambalaya and DW sampled it for Breakfast, and said it was so good. Everything was nice and soft from the slow cooker overnight....
We are also gonna have Porkburgers. DW's gonna make them after I grind the pork.
Applesauce (homemade) from last year.. and Cauliflower steamed / buttered / and seasoned with salt and Black Pepper. Hmm! a cheese sauce would be a thought over that too! / ?

Sounds like a plan luvs...
I love Bleu / blue / blew cheese...hahaha..but not as a dressing. isnt that sumthin?..
Mom & Dad used to eat it...and as kids we would say yuck dad...how can you eat mouldy cheese. He said," That's penicillin, and if you kids would eat some..the Dr. won't have to give you a "Penicillin Shot" in the tush!...
Guess what? We started to eat it...and we Loved It!

Embryodad, you might try this with the cauliflower. I use Best Foods mayo which I understand is Holmans back east. I make a mixture of 1/2 mayo and /1/2 mustard. Do it to your taste. I cover the cauliflower with that once it is cooked. Then I top with grated cheddar cheese and put it back into the oven until the cheese is melted. Even the kids liked it that way.
Well besides the usual hot wings, baby back ribs, deviled eggs and chips and dips. We have made up a cold cut plate of cheese, meats and fresh vegetables. We also have some cocktail meat balls in the oven now to be simmered in a cranberry jelly, chili sauce, brown sugar sauce after they are done in the oven for about 1 hour.. This will be all finger food while we watch the super bowl.

The game will be about over at dinner time for us. I'm doing Buffalo drumsticks (+ threw in some thighs) baked beans (Lee's recipe) and coleslaw (Mama's recipe)
Well we went to The Longhorn for lunch. The 4 of us shared the Firecracker Buffalo Chicken Wraps appy - 2 half wraps each was a perfect size. Hub and I subbed out the Blue Ridge salad for the regular salad that came with the dinner - it was romaine hearts, blue cheese dressing, blue cheese crumbles and bacon bits - wonderful. I ordered a strip steak medium. The first steak came out gray inside. Well back it went. The second one came out and if I gave it a transfusion it would have galloped off. Third time was a charm - perfectly cooked. The manager comped my dinner. I only ate 1/3 of it because by the time they got it right the family was done eating!! I hate that!! Aside from the steak cooking problem the food was good.
Chili, beer, & football.

Poor peep... Next time tell them You Will Cook your own Steak. L O L
Isn't that the place that has the Firecracker Shrimp too???
i made my wings/fries (the buffalo didn't stick well to the 1's so i brought the bottle of frank's in after a piece of 1. much better.) i threw the cheddar in the trash & just seasoned the fries instead. slipped my mind i coulda made gravy for 'em! & a 'lil batch of dressing, x-tra blue pcs. for snacking on, malt vinegar, ketchup, extra garlic butter. carrot/a cherub tomato.
think those were the best wings i've ingested in my enterierty.
time to return to the game!

We enjoyed our traditional "roasted" chicken wings, accompanied by a selection of TERRIFIC bottled wing sauces from our local "Buffalo Wild Wings" restaurant: "Mango Habanero" (blow-the-top-of-your-head-off HOT - but in a wonderful way), "Hot BBQ" (hot with a touch of smokiness), & "Parmesan Garlic" (a mild but very flavorful counterpoint to the first two).
OHHHHHHHHHHHH That sounds wonderful. I like them hot. I like to mix some hot wings sauce and the blue cheese dip together and dip in that also.

And you know - it really is ridiculously easy to throw together AND economical.
I bought 2-1/2 pounds or so of raw Perdue chicken wings for between $6 & $7, & the 3 bottles of wing sauce came to $12.09. We had some last night for dinner & there are some leftover for a couple of lunches &/or snacks. Plus, each one of those sauce bottles will easily last through several future batches of wings (or to grace other chicken dishes, or to dip French fries in, etc., etc.) & last FOREVER in the fridge. Plus, I save the little wing tips in the freezer to add when making future poultry stock. Can't beat that all for under $20. (I always have good blue cheese dressing & fresh celery on hand.)

you could not pay me enough to eat a funnel cake or an elephant ear or cotton candy(i cant stand the smell of it,Amanda wears this cotton candy smelling thing from bath & body works..ewwwww)...
or a candy apple(i will eat a caramel one with nuts on occassion)..
every once and awhile i will eat a corn dog BUT there are very few places in the country i will and i can name them...one little church lady in Augusta Georgia(from years ago), one place in Sacramento CA(only because it tastes like a canadian corndog, yes tastes different)
the sides shows are a thing of the past...very few Carnivals have them these days...
do i know the secrets to the games?..YUP...will i tell you them? NOPE..lol
