SUPER BOWL SUNDAY!




Blah Blah, right?! My team didn't make it this year and neither did my runner-up favorite team. Superbowl XLVI...To me, just two Yankee teams from up North competing for the championship! I'm not a fan of the New England Patriots or the New York Giants. But, I'll be checking out some of the commercials and looking for shots of the beautiful wives of the quarterbacks!

Team Brady: New England Quarterback and his gorgeous supermodel wife, Giselle. I'll be watching to see what she's wearing, for sure! Team Manning: New York Giants Quarterback Eli Manning and his wife Abby. I think I've mentioned on this blog before that I LOVE those Manning boys and Eli's soooo cute and his wife is a beautiful Southern girl. So, I must cheer for the Southern boy!!!

TEAM MANNING!

Of course, I'll be curious to see Madonna's halftime performance. I'm hoping she'll sing some of her old-school hits...
~"Holiday"
~"Into the Groove"
~"Material Girl"
~"Like a Virgin""
What songs are you hoping she sings or do you even care?

Everyone knows Superbowl Sunday is not a good time to try to cut back on party food...but, that's what I'm trying to do. Boo hiss. My contribution to a Superbowl spread today will be a bit boring...fresh veggies, low fat cheese, some pita crackers, and pepperoni rounds.

The snacks may be boring football food, but this container will make my contribution special. BFF Teresa Jane gave me this darling snack carrier for Christmas. I love it y'all! Southerners love to participate in "covered dish" events, and this snack carrier is sure to be a hit at social gatherings in the future.
I mixed up my Taste of Gourmet "Simply Spinach Dip" package {adding a low-fat mayo & no fat sour cream} and added chopped artichokes. You can order the dip mix from me HERE.

Have a fabulous Sunday and enjoy the game today! Stop by tomorrow morning...I'm having a giveaway!!!

My Maryland/Ravens fan husband just can't understand why Southerns, by default, just cheer for the Mannings! I can't wait to show him your post!

I cheer for Eli and Payton because they are Archie Manning's sons. I've been an Archie Manning fan since junior high...since he was at Ole Miss and had the Heisman stolen from him. Yes, I'm still bitter. Have a great day!

Love and Hugs,

Your veggie tray is adorable! Did it come with the bows too?

The dip sounds super yummy!

I didn't watch a second of the game...but I did watch Downton then went to bed!
