Super Bowl Party

Last year, we spent somewhere in the neighborhood of three hundred dollars at Sam's for snacks for the Super Bowl...and it was just us--2 adults and 3 small kids. This year, we decided to go ahead and invite some other people to join us. And we decided on upscale Mexican-thememd appetizers. Jeff worked hard coming up with unique twists on some old stand-bys, and just about everything was homemade. And everything was fabulous! We had Mexicali Meatballs, Chicken Jalapeno Bites, Mexican Shrimp Cocktail, Poppers by Ruth, Chorizo and Mushroom Nachos, Taco Pizza, Venison Sausage and Pepperoni Pizza, Salmon Dip, Spinach and Artichoke Dip, Grapefruit Margaritas, Rice Krispie Balls (made with homemade marshmallows), and Football Cupcakes. Our house was full of people, which was absolutely delightful. I admit, I had to ask Jeff yesterday morning who was playing (and, more importantly, what their colors were), and I watched maybe only about 5 minutes of the game, but what a party it was! I can't wait for the next excuse to fill up our house with people and eat delicious food.
