So I gave you folks a recipe to cook for your Superbowl parties and asked you to send me pictures. And people actually listened! How crazy is that? Here goes:
This is the one from my brother and sister-in-law John and Barbara. I have to say, this looks the most like mine. But then again, they have the benefit of calling me up and asking for specific amounts for the ingredients. Apparently my recipe was a little vague? Plus Barbara is a woman Italian, so she was born to cook. I kid, I kid! She really is an awesome cook.
This picture comes from Brett over at A Whip-Smart Kind of Life. He made the dip, but didn’t take a picture of the finished product, and instead opted to send me a picture of the wine he drank while eating it. He’s making a point about drinking wine without ice, because apparently I’m the worst person on the face of the planet for putting ice in my wine. Okay Brett, I see your point. Buy me a box bottle of wine, and I’ll drink is without ice.
The following pics come from Tim over at I Deny You the Nidus!
T-Shirt #1. In honor of Puntabulous and my Mickey Mouse ears he wore a Disney hat. How sweet!
Another reference to me drinking wine with ice! Seriously! It caused quite a stir! He doesn’t drink wine and was too lazy to go about actually fixing a drink, so he put the ice cube on top of the Coke. Excellent.
T-Shirt #2. The finished product!
T-Shirt #3. Here he is admonishing the dip filled chip to be tasty yet not so hot as to hurt him, blissfully ignoring the fact that the dip filled chip is not a sentient being and therefore incapable of rational thought.
Success! I imagine that his right hand is in the form of a gun as he pretends to be a bandit from the Wild West shooting his gun up in the air in celebration after a successful bank heist. In conclusion: 3 T-shirts, 2 different colored potholders, 1 dip.
These next pics come from Derek over at Never7 and his boyfriend David from Croxis:

Here is Derek studying the geniusness of my blog to better immerse himself in my recipe.

Here’s David spreading cream cheese like a man who was born to spread cream cheese. (Although I’m sure he has many other talents.)

Their bottle of Franks Hot Sauce looks SO MUCH BIGGER than the one I used. And since my (slightly vague) recipe called for the “whole bottle” that may have caused some confusion.

But it looks like it came out really good!

Here goes!

I’m pretty sure this is Derek’s “Mmmm, that’s delicious! God bless Craig for giving us this recipe!” face.
Thank you guys so much for sending in your pictures!

If you went to Italy and put an ice cube in your wine, you’d be deported. No joke. It happened to my cousins, roommates, girlfriends, friend.
I had to comment if only because I put ice in my wine as well. It’s VERY European don’t you agree? And cheap ..And other misc. sundry crap..LOL!
I was showing that chip my “oh face.”
As in “oh crap! So hot but so tasty!”
What’s a t-shit?
LOL! Good catch Darren!
I fixed it.
Hey Craig, I made the dip and used the big bottle of hot sause too. Everyone thought it was fabulous at the super bowl party we went to and I will make it again! Thanks doll
For some reason these pictures remind me of that movie quote: “If I Knew it was gonna be that kinda party, I would have stuck my d*ck in the mashed potatoes.”
I love the blow-by-blow depictions! What IS up with the guys with all the T-shirts, anyway?
Oh, and Craig - I like wine with ice in it too, although NOT wine from a box (I’m thinking thats a bigger faux pas than a stinkin piece of ice!)
we_be_toys: The T-shirt guy is me. I could be honest and say I don’t know what exactly happened myself. But why be honest? Instead I will say that it is a sly reference to Glenn Close’s courtroom scene in Jagged Edge.
My hair! This is why boyfriend never lets me out in public
Let me explain the wine in a box…
My family (extended included) thinks I like white wine, and I almost exclusively drink red, either way - they buy me lots of wine during the holidays. This box was one of those presents. At least is wasn’t Franzia White Zin!!!!
Crap - that’ll teach Bossy for working all week and not reading her favorite blogs.
Hey Craig–Thanks for the props. Us Women oops- Italians really know how to cook. This recipe was pretty good for an Irish boy!!
