Superbowl Guacamole


I'm not sure why but football season totally passed me by this year.  I used to be a die hard football fan.  I still am but I have to say when your team rarely wins, it's hard to keep up.  Still, it used to be that I could sit down and watch any game and be perfectly entertained.  I'm sure that's still true but I wouldn't know.  I hardly have watched an entire game this year.  We had a lot of weddings in the beginning of football season, then came the busy holiday season and before I know it, here we are at superbowl already.  It came upon me so fast that I barely had time to figure out what I was going to make for a superbowl party we went to.  Luckily, this guacamole is a quick, no cook recipe that whips up in snap and with the right shapped platter and some sour cream piping, its perfect for a Superbowl party...and quite the show stopper.

Guacamole

2 ripe avocados
1/2 cup red onion (mince)
2 tablespoons cilantro leaves, finely chop
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 tomato, seeded and copped
8 to 9 dashes Sriracha
1/2 teaspoon crushed garlic

Scoop out avocado and mash with fork.  Add lime juice, onion, cilantro, Sriracha and salt and pepper and mix.  Add tomato before serving.  Makes 4 to 6 servings.

Yes, I realize that we are almost half way through September and I have yet to publish a post for this month.  My apologies.  To make up for it, I have a double post of good fall recipes for you.  Here you go: Fall. I love it for so many reasons. The first reason being how everything outside is so beautiful. Trees are dressed in brilliant shades of warm colors. I love the crisp air. I love pulling out the sweaters and jeans. I love tailgating. There are so many wonderful things about fall, I haven’t even gotten to the food yet! I absolutely love fall foods. Low and slow stews, caramel apples, mulled cider, warm donuts…I could go on but I’m afraid I’d drool all over the keyboard.  What do you love most about fall? Game Day Cookies So here are the ingredients: first cool weather of the year, first weekend of college football and your husband is hosting a poker party. What does that add up to? Baking of course. I decided that those ingredients were the pe...

Letters to Bunny

Wow.  I didn't think I would ever be writing these letters, but I am so happy I am!  When I was pregnant with your big brother, we called him Pumpkin when he was in my belly and now I have started calling you Bunny, so that is why I call these, Letters to Bunny.  I didn't think I'd be writing these letters because it took almost 5 very long years to have you!  Now that you are here, I'm still in disbelief, but so happy I get to be a mom all over again!  Thank God! Being a mom is something I wanted to be my whole life.  When we had your big brother, Nate, it was the happiest time!  I knew right away that I wanted to have another baby.  Unfortunately, it wasn't so easy for me to get pregnant.  I didn't understand why.  We did lots of things to try to have a baby.  I went to many doctors, took many tests and x-rays, and after awhile of doing all these things, I kind of lost hope that I would ever be able to have another baby...

Upper Peninsula Trip 2022

I have had a few friends ask me for the itinerary of our UP trip, so here it is! Tahquamenon Falls Tuesday, June 14 We left early morning and made our way up to the UP.  We crossed the bridge and had lunch in St. Ignace.  We continued on to Paradise, Michigan to see Tahquamenon Falls.   We started with the lower falls. I was under the impression that there were 2 falls: one smaller one and one larger one, but that is not the case. The lower falls are made up of several hiking trails and quite a few areas with different waterfalls.  We would walk the trail, come up to a fall and stay a bit.  For most of the falls, you can get close or even get your feet in the shallow parts of the water.   The upper falls has the larger, most recognizable falls.  You walk a short path to a deck area that gets you pretty close to the edge.  Its a beautiful view, and you can feel the mist that comes up from the falls.  There are also trails to get a mo...
