Super Bowl Sunday with Recipe

What a great Sunday I am experiencing, actually right now. I must first admit that I am not a  huge  football fan, but I do want the pack to win. I went to school in Wisconsin and owned a cabin in Stone Lake Wisconsin when I was married. I am partial to the cheese heads. A friend of mine who guest chefs for me at my place of work bought the cutest little hair scrunchy that was a cheese head. She said she would let go and let the stylish her be gone while she was away at Lam beau.

My twin sister who lives with me and I, are both eating some great hoer devours while we watch the game. We set up a buffet on our kitchen counter. Right now the score is 14 pack, steelers zilcho. My two black lab dogs are happy napping while me and my twinner scream as the pack gets points. A perfect Sunday I must say.

Let me give you a fun recipe that I found online today and prepared with my sister.

Perspectives Inc is one of a few local non profits that receive the unwrapped toys that are donated by the guests on that night. This year Muddy paws dropped off over 100 toys from this special night for our Giving Tree Gift Program at Perspectives. Our Parenting time families will be receiving the gifts for their children while they attend their parent sessions.  Each child will receive at least one toy perhaps two, depending on how many donations come in. Tami and Muddy Paws is ever so generous.  They are always busy thinking of the next way they can help those in need. 


Tami, we at Perspectives Inc treasure your passion for our mission. Please see Muddy Paws Cheesecakes web.
