Ballpark Bites

One thing all baseball fans can agree on - we know how to eat (and drink!). I've scoured the web to find fan picked favorites when it comes to baseballs tastiest treats. Looks like I'm going to need to take a ballpark road trip real soon; solely to binge. My apologies in advance for sudden hunger pains.

Thank God I live in San Francisco!

Going to a new stadium and unsure of what to scarf down first? Look here.

Cosmo Clue:
When it comes to baseball - calories shmalories; just eat it. Head to San Francisco for a bloated good time.

Big Game Bites

Invited to a Super Bowl party this Sunday but have no clue what sport we're even celebrating? No biggie. First, take a look here, and then check out the recipes below. Even if you're not a football maniac, you can put your energy into making a delish dish for the party goers. 

As I was clicking away through cyber space, I stumbled across these yummy recipes and figured they were perfect for a Super Bowl soiree. Plus, these recipes are all via Martha Stewart - and the girl can do no wrong (when it comes to recipes, that is).

Seven Layer Dip Recipe

If you're that girl (or boy - no discrimiation here) who likes to be extra crafty and creatvie with party planning, this fancy appetizer has your name all over it. Takes a little extra time and preparation, but it's almost too perfect to pass up.

Sliders Recipe

A little somethin' for my meat-eating boys and girls. Who doesn't love a juicy burger? And who doesn't love cute, flavorful sliders? (Don't forget the condiments!)

Tequila Touchdown Recipe

I don't even like To-kill-ya and this drink looks not only refreshing and pretty, but easy. Cheers!

Grasshopper Cake Recipe

Now that everyone is bloated and most likely a little tipsy, the sugar cravings really creep in. Post game is perfect timing for these adorable, delicious desserts (and a few more Tequila Touchdowns, obviously).

Thank you, Martha!

...and for the not-yet-domestic ladies (like me) who aren't into slaving away in the kitchen & sporting aprons, I'll most likely be bringing pre-packaged chips, pre-made dip, and this to my friends party. No one will judge.

I'll be posting a blog later this week to get you geared up for the big game this Sunday, but until then, get your recipes (or non-recipes) ready. 

Hostess with the MOSTESS

With Thanksgiving on the horizon, and football season in full swing.. it's time to find your inner Betty Crocker and get cookin! 

To me, there's nothing better than football & food. Put those two together, and it's pretty much like THE BEST DAY EVER. Even if you aren't a football fanatic, you can tie on that apron and spend the day slaving away in the kitchen. 

On a diet? Welp, good luck! I dare you to prepare these snacks without indulging. 

Gather some pals and host a little football soiree with these delish ideas:

fancy & fun!

shrimp skewers to spicy beer!! 

mini dogs and beer margaritas! 

looking to gain a few pounds?? 

the cutest cookies!

Tis' the season for Sundays of bloated bellies!
