Second 1/2 of my Super Bowl Sunday Post! "My Pretend Super Bowl Party!"

It's Super Bowl Sunday Y'all!!! Go Broncos! I am cheering for the Broncos by default because Ryan likes Peyton Manning. Also, Shout Out to my girl in Cali who is also cheering by default for the Broncos because her husband likes them as well. She may be a bigger fan that me and that's okay! I am just more of a college fan so I don't have a NFL team that I typically cheer for!

So my husband and I have both been battling sickness this week! He's been fighting a cough since about October and has finally gotten some relief with a new Cough Syrup he got at the Dr. on Monday. I also went to the Dr. and was diagnosed with a sinus infection and a cough. Since I am pregnant I am limited on what I can take but they were able to prescribe me something for the sinus gunk!

Since I have had basically no energy this week I have been online a lot and I planned a Pretend Super Bowl Party! I even started a Super Bowl Party Pinboard that I will attempt to add a link for. We will see how that goes! Super Bowl Party Board!  I hope next year I am able to host a party and serve some of these delicious looking football snacks! After all there are only 209 days until it's Football Tiiiiime in Oklahoma! Surely I can find something to do between now and then…

Anyway, as I sat on Pinterest this week I thought of all the yummy super bowl foods I wanted to make and the things that I am craving due to this baby!!! I have always been a buffalo chicken fan but it sounds especially delicious right now! One thing that I just started to like before I found out I was pregnant was a hot and spicy Bloody Mary!  I love the spice! I love the Salty-ness! Just YUMM-O All around!  ANYTHING with ranch sounds delicious as well so of course a twist on the traditional "JalapeƱo Popper" is in order. Wish homemade ranch OF COURSE!  Those are not links for the recipes but just pictures for you to drool over like I am right now!


As for our ACTUAL Super Bowl Party menu, we did get out in the cold yesterday to make a run to the grocery so we wouldn't starve today. I must say, the husband has spoiled me rotten today. Breakfast in bed, then lunch while I was organizing bills and now he's grilling in the SNOW! Taking him shopping does have its perks! 
Menu
Cheese Burgers with all the trimmings
Chips, Queso and Salsa
Crinkle Fries
Boneless Buffalo Chicken Bites with Ranch
Homemade French Onion dip with ruffles
 MORE than enough food for two people but I am not celebrating the Super Bowl without Buffalo Chicken SOMETHING and we can snack throughout the rest of the game!  For now I bid you all farewell as we watch Bruno Mars perform an extra gold and sparkly looking Halftime show! 

XOXO

Hillary
