Happy Superbowl Sunday everyone! It is especially exciting around these parts because it’s the SEAHAWKS playing. The whole city of Seattle has gone crazy. Haha. I personally know 4 people who are going to the game. The excitement is everywhere!
Even without the Seahawks playing this year, today is my favorite party of the year! My sister and her husband throw their annual “Super Birthday Bowl” Party in honor of my Brother In-Law’s birthday. They fly in craw-fish from Louisiana and have a craw-fish boil every year!
I was thinking about what I was bringing today and recipes for game parties and I thought what better drink for a Superbowl party than a Bloody Mary! I personally don’t drink, but love a good spicy virgin Bloody Mary anyway, especially garnished with asparagus.
Everyone have a fun and safe day! I have to get going, as I still have some cookies to bake and decorate!
Enjoy!
