Super Bowl Foods!

Are you ready for some football???????

I’m not.  I’m Canadian and football really isn’t a big part of our “culture”.  We don’t have Friday night football games in high school.  I don’t know ANYONE who goes to football games.  We’re a country of hockey lovers and to be honest I don’t think I’ve ever been to a hockey game.  Go figure.

I know very little about football. Here’s a quick summary of what I do know:
1. Tom Brady is a hottie
2. Tom Brady’s hottie status is brought out even more by those tight little pants football players have to wear
3. Tom Brady is possibly engaged to Gisele
4. Tony Romo is dating Jessica Simpson
5. This year Arizona and Pittsburgh are in the Superbowl (I had to look that one up)

While I know little about football I do get that the Superbowl is a big deal. And where there’s a big deal there’s food. Now from what I understand super bowl chow often involves chili, guacamole, Buffalo wings and various things to be dipped. Not bad. But why follow the crowd? If I were having a superbowl party these would be my picks…
