Betsy and I are going to our first ever Redskins game this weekend. Actually, it’s my first ever NFL game so I’m pretty excited. We are playing the Broncos which should mean that we get blown out of the water given how good they are this year and how absolutely horrible the Skins are.
But that’s okay. It should be a good time.
I’m working on a lot of Thanksgiving posts, but thought I would ask you guys what kind of appetizer I should make.
A few links!
Eating in the Matrix – A great analogy for some of the “food” we eat and purchase. Is it really food? How do you define food and why is it important to eat it? This is a great post. (@ Summer Tomato)
Shrimp and Grits – I used to work at a restaurant that served kind of upscale southern food. The shrimp and grits were probably the most popular dish on the menu and with reason. This version looks pretty tasty. (@ Ezra Pound Cake)
Food Photography 101 – I take a lot of photos here and it’s all self-taught by reading good material like this. Anyone can take good food photography with just a little knowledge and practice in my opinion. (@ Brown Eyed Baker)
Homemade Ricotta – I really like this walkthrough on homemade ricotta but also check out the most adorable fluffy cat in the whole wide world (except Tipsy). Pushkin is the cutest. (@ Sassy Radish)
Have a good weekend everyone!

ok, I hate football, but I’m trying to like it. hubby finally broke down and bought me an HDTV so now I can see stuff. and guess what? I loved watching baseball this past summer (or should I say fall at this point?). so now, hubby is convinced I will like football because I can see what’s going on. whereas before I couldn’t see anything because the TV was so small, plus the fact that he told me how baseball is played (rules and all). once I know the rules I can follow along. football, he is trying to teach me, but damn there are just so many rules and moves, etc…. all I see is a bunch of guys running 4 feet to jump into a pile of other players. ohhhh that sounds so exciting. lol
Thanks so much including my food photography tutorial in your roundup! I’m glad you’ve found it useful. I’ll be in DC this weekend, but I’ll be sitting in a Steelers bar rooting on the Black & Gold! :)
You’ll have fun at the game. What kind of tailgating are you doing?
Thanks for the shrimp and grits link, that’s one of our favorites.
Being from Colorado, i feel that i must add… GO BRONCOS! hehe, hope you enjoy the game :)
