What are you planning to make this weekend to celebrate the Superbowl?
that looks delicious! I am making Texas style chili and I am very excited about it.
ReplyDeleteIm making gumbo....because I'm rooting for the Saints......because of your awesome emails(instant conversion)! Have you seen the Phyllis Hoffman Magazine "Celebrate Winter"? There is a Mardi Gras spread in there and I immediately thought of you!
ReplyDeleteKatie is having a party at their condo so I will head over there. I must admit, I have a bit of a short attention span when it comes to football, so I will most likely only last until after the halftime show!
ReplyDeleteSounds just like the Elmer's candy - I may make this for Easter in a bunny cake mold pan - can you still get those?
