Army & Navy Cocktail
I love football. I’ve been watching professional sports for as long as I can remember; ever since my father took me to my first Red Sox game in 1978. Yes, I was a Sox fan before 2004. But he didn’t just take me to baseball games. I also watched plenty of Celtics and Patriots games… Continue reading Army & Navy Cocktail
Boston Cooler

Now, I know there are plenty of people out there who have already been watching football games and… Continue reading Triple Chocolate Hatch Chili
Lemon Chicken Wings for the Super Bowl
I love the Super Bowl. Every year come February I’m sitting on my couch in front of the TV screaming… even if I don’t care one iota about the teams playing. Why am I yelling at the TV? Because it’s football, and there’s nothing better than sitting on the couch with friends while screaming at… Continue reading Lemon Chicken Wings for the Super Bowl
