As for the game... well, don't tell but I don't know both teams involved. Sorry. I do know the Patriots are playing and that they have not lost this season. I certainly don't hate football or anything. It's a regular TV viewing choice with all the boys around here. You could call me neutral. Anyway, it's more important for me to have everyone enjoy the food that I have lovingly prepared.

It's a little less heart healthy than is my usual cooking habits, however, most ingredients are organic, including the chips, breads and veggies. Most of the cheese are part skim. The sour cream is fat free and the cream cheese is lower. The crackers and tortillas are both lower sodium.

I've learned to throw away all containers before my guests arrive because when they see lower fat cheese labels they tend to think of less taste and dieting. Not what I want my guests to be thinking about before putting food into their mouths. Now I keep my mouth shut and offer nothing until after the food is being inhaled and someone wants a recipe.

If you run into anyone that will be attending our Super Bowl Affair, mum's the word, k?
