For the Super Bowl, I love to serve what I call "team icon food"—classics
from the hometowns of the playing teams. It's especially exciting this year, as New York
and Beantown have great options.
Here's my menu and timing, from pre- to post-game. Feel free to use it yourself. If you are going to do this at home, remember to keep the portions small—it's easy to have way too much food, and quarters don't last that long.
Josh Friedland, proprietor of the über-useful Food Section blog, complied a neat list of 100 songs for food lovers last week for something called "Blogger Radio" on AOL Radio.
It's a neat idea, and one that I've been employing almost since the date that Apple launched its iTunes Music Store. I've made mixes, for instance, to soundtrack a number of dinner parties, cookouts, and early-morning brunch feeds.
Helen Jane is blogging on the theme of warm weather entertaining this month. I hosted a party for some friends this weekend and my spread included her cherry tomatoes, basil, tiny mozzarella balls and croutons skewers and a couple pitchers of her lemon fizzy lifting drink. These were both as described: super easy to prepare crowd pleasers.
Thanks, Helen Jane! I'm already planning my next get-together around your white sangria recipe.
