Hey, I never said I was paying!

Spumoni!!! My fave pizza of all time! Best squares ever. I live 15 minutes away from there.

Oh i misunderstood! I hope you're at least chipping in!

omg - I had no idea you live near there.. I used to date a guy back in the day who had a lot of family in Bensonhurst ..now one of my best friends' son plays ice hockey all over so when they play in NY, sometime we meet our other b/f who lives in NY somewhere central and we've gone there a few times! I love that place!

do they have the largest food portions ever or what?

OK - got my carrot sticks, celery and vinegar, 100-calorie kettle popcorn and a 6-pack of diet Dr. Pepper. I'm all set!

sounds like a lot to look forward to there bub. j/k - I know you're trying to lose a few pounds. what is the vinegar for?

Unfortunately, Muggs lost all of his luggage and his wallet was stolen. He's asking all his friends and family to wire money so he can buy a plane ticket home.

let me guess = send the money to you and you'll get it to him?

I hope he's okay..maybe he ran off with a french hottie or something. selfishly, I miss him here...

Drunken Meatballs in the crockpot since 9:30 am...Monster pot of chili on the stove since Noon.
Going to friends to watch the game where there will be an assortment of chips/dips/cheeses/crackers/veggies. Brats & burgers on the grill. Hopefully someone will bring some wings..?
Plenty of cold adult beverages..and possibly a shot of Patron after the GIANTS WIN!!

Enjoy the game everyone~~

Vinegar is a calorie-free dipping sauce for carrots. The balsamic has a few calories so I use that sometimes with a splash of olive oil.

Some bakery around here is selling chicken wing covered cupcakes. The cupcake is made out of cornbread and the frosting is blue-cheese dressing, and the wing is placed on top. They can't make them fast enough according to the local news.

[fredgmuggs]

I have some stale wheat thins. It's going to be quite the party at my house.

[smr15]

Sue, how are ya? Was this being made as a meal or a sandwich?

It'll be for sandwiches.

I have some wings that will go in the oven, and then some chips w/guacomole, salsa, sour cream, etc.

and Beer.... I have the 12 pack carton of Sam Adams Winter collection. (six different beers, two bottles each).

[fredgmuggs]

I read in the paper today that 12 billion dollars is going to spent on Super Bowl food today. That's a lot of tortilla chips and salsa.

Here's my recipe for Hot Wings:

and I do mean

6 tbsp. ea.
Salt
Pepper
Oregano
1 whole head of Garlic
2-3 large or 4-5 small onions
2/3 cup of red wine vinegar
2 fl. oz. Original Tabasco Red Sauce
Frank's Original Buffalo Hot Sauce
8-10 tbsp. unsalted butter
6 lbs. Chicken wings

Preheat the oven to 450.

Peel Garlic; leave cloves whole, except for trimming off the base. Cut onions in half; thinly slice onions length-wise.

Wash the wings, making sure to pull out any quills or feathers. Using a meat cleaver or chicken scissors, cut the wings at the joints. Discard the wing tip; place the wing (center portion) and drumette to one side.

In a large mixing bowl, mix the salt, pepper, & oregano. Toss in wings and coat. Dash in 10-12 shakes of Tobasco and a generous amount of Frank's. Pour in red wine vinegar. Mix wings until all coated.

Place a large baking tin (I use the 11"x19"x3.5" tins) on a cookie sheet. Layer the wings inside the tin. Toss whole garlic cloves and onion slices over wings. Pour the melted butter over the wings. Tightly cover the tin with tin foil. (Hint: If you get the "picnic style" tins with the silver topped lids, do not use the lids. Those lids are paper-based and may catch fire due to the extended heat exposure.)

Once the oven is heated, place the cookie sheet with the baking tin in the oven for approximately one to 1.5 hours. Uncover the tin and check the amount of liquid. Return to the oven for an additional hour to 1.5 hours, allowing the liquid to render down.

Serve hot.

Welcome back, Danielle! How was the abode when you returned?

[xenadanielle]

Welcome back, Danielle! How was the abode when you returned?

LOL. Still there, thank goodness. It's actually pretty cleaned up too, just some mopping is needed in the kitchen and my bathroom. There is some dried crud on the stove and some other random jobs that need to get done but really not as bad as it could be. From what I am told, a couple of the ladies assumed a lot of the hostessing tasks and clean-up as far as doing the dishes and stuff too.

[krystl]

That's good! You must have been dreading what you might walk into!

Franks Buffalo Chicken dip - my fav app!

8 oz. pkg. cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup blue cheese or ranch salad dressing
1/2 cup FRANK'S Buffalo Wing Sauce
1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese or shredded mozzarella cheese
chicken (boil and cut up)

DIRECTIONS:

HEAT oven to 350°F. Place cream cheese into deep baking dish. Stir until smooth.
MIX in salad dressing, Frank's RedHot Sauce and cheese. Stir in chicken.
BAKE 20 min. or until mixture is heated through; stir. Serve with crackers or vegetables.

Vic, this sounds yummy. I'm going to make it to take to a party on Saturday. I'm thinking mozzarella is a better choice than blue cheese?

I like the blue cheese but try it with the mozz. I'm sure either way is good. And def use Franks sauce if you can find it. This is my favorite recipe except I usually eat so much, I don't have room for anything else.

[krystl]

I think blue cheese seems like the natural choice, since its usually what is served with hot wings. Mozz doesn't seem like it would go, imo.

I bought blue cheese and Frank's at lunchtime today. I was being selfish since I love mozzarella.
