And This is Why I Love White Castle


If you're like me you approach New Year's Eve with a sense of fear and dread. Frankly, they don't call it "Amateur Night" for nothing. (And when I say "they" I mean bartenders, liquor store owners, police officers, and professional drinkers.) But the nice part is, hungover or not, New Year's Day is a recognized national holiday and a built-in recovery day.

But those of us who spend Super Bowl Sunday gorging on snacks, dips, wings, chips, chili, meatball subs, hoagies, and whatever liquid refreshment can wash away the sting of multiple gambling losses need a holiday the NEXT day. Screw New Year's Day, give me a holiday on Super Bowl Monday!

Sensing a groundswell of support for this concept, the brilliant minds at White Castle have begun a petition to declare the day after the Super Bowl a national holiday. Show your support. Sign the petition.

Superbowl night ... GREAT for indulging!! My fav -- spicy chicken dip w/ tortilla chips ... amazing!! And if you've never experienced it...you should experiment!!! Leftovers include: pigs-in-blanket (I know, I know ... don't even TELL me the nutrition on this one!), seafood salad (I had it by itself -- leftovers also delicious w/ wheat thins, club crackers(yikes!)... and plain old chips-n-dip (traditional french-onion -- can't beat it). LOVE superbowl sunday for the privilege it allows to pig out :)

That said...looking for a healthy weekend! :) Any ideas of tasty(!) healthy recipes...post it here!!! Any genre (i.e. italian, french, asian, amerian, etc.) great!
