Are You Ready For Some Football??? NFL Super Bowl XLVIII

DENVER BRONCOS vs. SEATTLE SEAHAWKS

This Sunday (Feb. 2, 2014), at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, is NFL Super Bowl XLVIII!! I know there's a lot of the women out there that are not big football fans, or maybe not a fan of any sport, let alone watching them on tv. But this can be a very fun day for all! I've found some interesting things to help you not only survive, but enjoy this Super Bowl Sunday! There are some awesome appetizer and snack recipes, plenty of cocktails to pick from, interesting Superbowl trivia, and in fact, I've managed to even find a little fashion to fit into this Super Bowl Weekend!! And don't forget those amazing commercials! We also have Bruno Mars and Red Hot Chile Peppers performing during the half time show! I promise you, it really can be an enjoyable day for the whole family! And I guess before we look at all the food, drink, trivia, and fashion, we should discuss who will be playing in the big Super Bowl game this weekend! We have the DENVER BRONCOS and star quarterback Peyton Manning versus the SEATTLE SEAHAWKS, and their awesome quarterback Russell Wilson. Who are you rooting for? I hope you have an awesome day and HAVE FUN, but most of all....be SAFE!

Now....Back to the fashion I promised you!!!
