Super Bowl Party

The Super Bowl is less than two weeks away! Super Bowl XLVIII is Sunday Feb. 1, 2014. Are you having a party or a few friends over? Need some ideas?

Last year, we had some friends over and I decorated by covering our table in green felt to make it look like a football field (DIY here). I set the room like a tailgate party. You can get more details about our party from THIS POST. 

Banners, Bunting, and Garland are still a big part of party decor for 2014.

I really like the idea of using artificial turf to line serving dishes or use as coasters. You can buy it here, or at your local hardware store.

Photo cred.

As for food, if you have a big crowd it's easiest to serve a meal like chili or pizza since the game begins during dinner time. It's always fun to have game food such as nachos, dips, wings, or sliders. Some recipes I think look great:

Peanut Butter Football Dip

Pretzel Bites

Mini Corn Dogs

For more ideas check out my RECIPE page. Extra Spicy Chili, Southwestern Chicken Rollups, Fruit Salsa, and Chewy M&M bars would be great ideas to serve at your party!

Or you could construct a football stadium.

 I don't know who has time for this. It looks like a Pintrest Fail waiting to happen, but if you do, more power to you and good luck!

 Hope you have a fun football party!!! Go Broncos! (Peyton)

Super Bowl Party

We had a few people over on Sunday to watch the Super Bowl. Like most of our other get-togethers,  I got a little excited a few weeks early planning the decor and menu. I covered our table in green felt and made lines with masking tape. I found a bunch of football themed decor to add to the table. I decided to make it all tailgate themed and decorated with coolers and folding chairs. I made wings, Auntie Anne's pretzel pigs in a blanket, nachos, and cookies. I was able to find the paper food trays similar to what you would get at the game. Since it was Sunday and not too many people wanted to drink beer, I served root beer and orange cream soda. I may have gone a little overboard with the small group that we had, but it was fun!
