All Fantasy, No Football: Week 6
With New Year's Eve around the corner, I have two things: a lot of champagne and 2013 resolution. Football can help with both of these. 1) Get body inspired. These athletes have amazing bodies! Sure, I don't want arms the size of a building's support beam, but I would like to carry my groceries in the house without stopping nine times. And can I just get a "Hey boys!!!!!" on this. They should show more shirtless football games...in my opinion... Read More ›

Coconut Champagne Punch
A pretty party punch to serve on the patio at sunrise or sunset. Just because I prefer life stuffed with cheese and deep fried doesn’t mean I can’t appreciate a convergence of the [relatively] healthy and delicious. I found this recipe for this pretty coconut-water-based punch on a lovely, healthy-pants blog, Averie Cooks. In the interest of full disclosure, I will mention that the recipe is Vegan, Gluten Free, Soy Free, and No Sugar Adde... Read More ›

We all know strawberries and Champagne go together like peanut butter and jelly. Eat a strawberry, then sip your Champagne … But have you ever thought of Champagne-Soaked Strawberries?! Wow, that's even better! The strawberries soak up the Champagne like they were made for it. They turn out so plump and juicy it’s almost impossible to bite into one without needing a napkin! I think it’s going to be a challenge to eat a “non-spiked” str... Read More ›

The Dark Knight Rises in Liquid Form
Fan boys (and girls!) are very excited about The Dark Knight Rises, a new flick featuring the Caped Crusader. Batman has come a long way from the days of Adam West dancing around in his spandex Bat Suit. But isn’t there something else that has come a long way since that television show? Oh yeah, cocktails. We expect Bat Mania to take hold of the country when the movie debuts at the end of July, so we’ve concocted a couple of cocktails tha... Read More ›

How to Choose the Perfect Bottle of Champagne
New Year’s Eve is coming up, and you know what that means… It will be time to guzzle Champagne at the stroke of Midnight. The best part about sipping some bubbly is that no one will notice that you’ve forgotten the lyrics to Auld Lang Syne when you draw the glass to your mouth (you should make it your resolution to finally learn the lyrics to that song!). Choosing the perfect Champagne for your toast shouldn’t be intimidating. This year,... Read More ›
