Can you believe the season is already half over? I bet some of the coaches would like to start the season over, a few players too. Looks like there is a quarterback switch-a-roo going around on many fields...
Anyway, back inside the comfort of many homes are where we find some of the tastiest and best foods for game-day football watching. I know that is where some of my all time favorite snacks and foods are, lined up right in front of the television.
Congratulations to Marguerite for winning last week's game with her Cajun tailgating faves recipes.

Good luck to everyone. My weekend whoosh by so quickly that I hardly get to see football, let alone cook something for the game. Ok, I did see the Bears on Monday night (bummer). I love your cheese ball!
