Super Bowl Sunday… a mix of emotions when our beloved Seahawks are not in the hunt for the championship, but it’s still a great event to gather friends and family for chili, commercial viewing, and general merriment.
Do a quick search in our archives for Super+Bowl+Food and you will find plenty of ideas and recipes to kick start your menu.
If you are looking for other things to do around town, our event calendar will keep your family busy. Cheers!
