Getting ready for the "Big Game"

I just got back from Sam's Club.

As soon as you walked in the door, there were a large display of all kinds of chips and dips.

There were entire refrigerated displays of various prepared vegetables - so they could eat all the different dips.

Then we got to the frozen meat section. They were busy putting at least 6 cases of frozen chicken wings in the freezer. And then in the fresh meat section, there was about half a refrigerator case of fresh chicken wings. And a sign saying a limit of 12 packages.

Looks like there is going to be alot of eating going on and they are prepared.

I'll admit that I'm excited to eat Super Bowl snacks on Sunday! I've been really trying to watch what I eat but have decided to splurge for the game. I'm looking foward to nachos and buffalo chicken dip LOL

Not interested in the game at all, but the food sounds good.

DH and friends are gathering at a friend's house for a big party. I'll be home with Shadow, enjoying myself!

I am not a sports person. I was always on a horse, lol!

@ECBG In the winter I was feeding the horse more than being on the horse.

The super bowl is and always was a non-event in my house. We are more hamburgers on the grill people!

@ECBG Sure!

For me, Jalapenos are just slightly hotter than a regular green pepper - compared to Serrano or Habanero. With the cream cheese combo filling, these Jalapenos are only slightly hot/spicy.

Here's an interesting tip: If someone wanted more heat in the Jalapenos poppers, just leave in some of the membrane inside of the Jalapenos before filling with the stuffing mxiture, for extra spiciness.

DH and our 2 sons would have jumped all over that!

I can't even touch them. I had the oil stay on my fingers even though I often wash my hands and it got on my contact. The doctor coud see it and said I shouldn't work with jalapenos!

DH always makes 7 layer dip (actual 6 b/c I don't like olives). He also makes margaritas with fresh limes.

OMG, @ECBG I know, I understand, that has happened to me also. Thank goodness you are OK.

I'm going to make those pizza rolls where you take refrigerated pizza crust, cut in 10 pieces, layer w/pepperoni, string mozzarella cheese, wrap them, spread with melted butter, garlic powder, parsley, bake and serve w/pizza sauce. Never made them before, hope they turn out okay.
