51. New England Patriots Clam Chowder and Cheese-Beer Bread

Posted on January 23, 2012 by

Championship Sunday. The best Sunday of the year. Seriously. Unless the Steelers are in the Super Bowl, I don’t get too invested. Super Bowl Sunday is more about commercials and half-time shows. Non-football people watch the Super Bowl. It all … Continue reading →

11 days ago, for Thursday Night Football, my beloved Steelers took on their bitter rivals (real rivals, none of that B’more Ravens bullshit) the Cleveland Browns. I selected #40 Beef Pizza because it is a football-appropriate meal. Cleve and I … Continue reading →

Posted on November 8, 2011 by

Please disregard any formatting issues on #47–since I lost this post and had to recreate it piecemeal, it’s not my best work.  This was to be the week of the Game of the Century: No. 1 ranked LSU versus No. 2 … Continue reading →

Posted on October 18, 2011 by

I do the majority of my cooking on Sundays, but since it is football season (the most wonderful time of the year!) Sundays can get a little busy because of game schedules. We live in Baltimore, but I love the … Continue reading →

Posted on September 23, 2011 by

Two weekends ago (yes, it does take me rather long to post these, doesn’t it?), I went down to Federal Hill to meet some friends who had driven down to Baltimore for the Ravens vs. Steelers game. As you all … Continue reading →
