Football Season

We're three weeks into the college football season and even though our beloved Wolverines are struggling (I'm being polite), we're enjoying the best part of being couch potatoes on Saturdays.  The eats!
Week one was a bit sad.  G & I were both sick so we had homemade chicken noodle soup.  I had just made some chicken stock the week before so we benefited from that, but still...BOR-ING.
Week two was definitely a step up.  Some friends stopped by to sample a menu of slow cooked pork carnitas tacos, roasted tomatillo salsa, and lime custard tart.  Oh, and we watched the game too.
Week three was at Mom's house.  The games were sad, but we weren't.  We feasted on turkey chili with all the fixins--minced onion, shredded cheddar and Jack cheeses, sour cream, cilantro, and oyster crackers.  Mom also made some dips for us.  A salsa dip, French onion.  I was in dip heaven.
Week four is a bye week so I have some time to think up what the menus will be for the rest of the season.  I feel the need to impress since the team sure isn't doing that.
