WOW what a game last night! I'm not a fan of either one of the teams, but I must say that the Giants played their asses off!! I really thought Tommy would pull it out in the end, but sadly he did not. Either way, yesterday was a fun-filled day of family, food and hilarious commercials.
Well....sorta.
Not sure I was a fan of a lot of the commercials this year! I mean ok the baby grabbing the Doritos bag, yeah that was pretty cute. And I thought the Here We Go rescue dog was one of the best...oh and don't even get me started on John Stamos or David Beckham. Wow. But all in all I was pretty disappointed. RIP the days when Britney made us WANT to drink Pepsi...sigh.
However, despite the crap Facebook has been clogging up in my newsfeed since last night, I thought Madonna killed it! She was awesome! Seriously people, she's pushing 56 and can still hold her own when it comes to a performance, she's an icon. I wasn't a fan of her new song AT ALL, I mean this isn't an Old Navy commercial, annnnd if you can get past her super annoying ego for about 8 minutes, she totally made up for it by singing Like a Prayer with Cee Lo...freakin' brilliant ending.

All of this food looks great!
Great round up! I totally agree with you on Madonna - she rocked it and I was shamelessly singing along to Like a Prayer in my living room.
Thanks for featuring our Edamame Guacamole! It is one of my favorites! Great recipes...so many to try!
Cute post Kelly!
Some stars age well...and others don't -Madonna was terrific, and I love that Pepsi commercial!
And great round-up too.

Loooooove me some Britney. Those shrimp and veggie rolls look divine! After all that heavy fried food I indulged in last night I think Ill make these for dinner :)
Oh my word, ALL of these recipes are getting saved! Everything looks amazing! Thanks for sharing...REGULAR POP? What is that, sister! hahahaha. I REMEMBER.....
Holy smokes! This all looks so good. Love your blog :)
Madonna KILLED IT!! I kept saying all night..it was probably one of the BEST halftime shows I've ever seen! (I was pretty sick of the facebook ramblings as well..)Shes hot, she did hot..I was totally impressed!
I was quite disappointed with the commercials this year as well. Coke really needs to get out of its rut with those bears! LOVED Like a Prayer with Cee Lo, but then I do like Cee Lo! Thank you so much for featuring my pepitas! I'm flattered especially with so many other delicious looking recipes! We did eat a batch during the SB yesterday, so I have to say that they are fabulous! :) I've marked several other snacks to try. Great Hop and thanks for hosting!
I could not have said it better. I totally agree about the Super Bowl. Madonna was good, I was not blown away, but like a prayer made up for that. So glad she added that. I remember years past being so impressed with the commercials. What happened? All these appetizers look fabulous. I am going have to try some of these for my daughter's birthday party. Thanks for sharing.
totally agree about the commercials. I think the rescue dog beer one was my fave too! and I also loved Madonna. I just hope I can dance like that at 56.
also i have made that black bean salsa before and it is amazing - great pick!
awwwwwwww thanks for featuring me! Oh and I so agree with the commercials. My favorite was the M&M's one, though. hahahaha. So cute.
I was not impressed with the commercials either. Well, other than that hotness that is David Beckham. And I liked the Sketchers commercial with the dog. Love all your skinny apps!!
I want all of those appetizers right now!! They look so delicious!
OMG! thanks for reminding me of those awesome Britney ads! :)
All I gotta say is I hope to look that good when I'm in my 50's!
I agree with her new song, but the oldies were great!!
Whoop for the Joy of Pepsi! ;) Always loved Britney!! Thanks for sharing that old school commercial.
Seriously, all of those appetizers are delicious! I want those crab stuffed mushrooms. Like, now! hehe
Happy Monday, friend!
xoxo
Holy smokes! Those apps look fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I actually downloaded that Britney Spears Pepsi song back then and put it on a mixed CD! ha! And those appetizers look great!!
I'm with you on the commercials. Other than a few, yawn!
Great round up here...so much yummy food!
I'm glad I'm not the only one that doesn't like her new song! But her performance was kicking.
App recipes look great!
Delicious round up! Everything looks so good, I don't know where to begin.
What a great roundup!! This is making me hungry all over again for superbowl snacks!
Fabulous roundup! Yes there were SO many Superbowl posts floating around with so many great ideas; I didn't know what to even try first...so many awesome choices. Love all your picks!
I seriously want all of these - in my face... like now! <3 Thanks for featuring me darling!!!! Hope you're having a great day!
xoXOxo

i agree, bring britney back!!!
Oh, good times! I love that video :) Those recipes look amazing!
I agree - the commercials were a bit disappointing!! Though I did love the Here We Go rescue dog. Also am loving your roundup...thanks so much for including my fruit salsa! :)
I was all about Madonna singing old school Madonna. The tunes I loved as a girl were lost on the husband, though! As for the food, I want some of that fruit salad real bad!
I dunno why but I randomly watched this Britney commercial about a month ago; she was one hot lady back then and I was totally jealous of her hair and her body...mostly her body. Like she drinks regular Pepsi....sheesh; give that girl a can of Diet Pepsi and you might have it right ;)
Totally agree with Madonna. The new song is HORRIBLE!!! Sounds like Old Navy, and horribly pop music. But she did great with the old songs - just wish she would have actually sang them. But hell, if I could be in half that shape when I am 40, I would be thrilled!
I agree with the Madonna comments. I think she kinda rocked it, especially considering her age.
Just stumbled upon your blog today & I looovvveee it! Your recipes are simply fabulous! :)
The apps you freatured are amazing!!! I have loved Madonna since her first album and think she did a purely entertaining performance.
Great round-up!! All of these snacks would make for a great party :)
I miss the Britney Pepsi days too! The guac recipe looks amazing
Oh my gosh all the food looks amazing

What a super list of snacky recipes - love the look of them all. Also love Madonna. She still rocks and many of the newbies out there have a tough act to follow. We don't have superbowl but the 7 Nations rugby in Europe. I'm going crazy... for these dishes.
Thank you for picking my Buffalo Wontons for your round up. Everything looks wonderful. I think this Saturday night will be appetizer night, so I can try these recipes. Love appetizer night!!
The food looks delish! Madonna was awesome...all I wanted to do was sing louder than I was and bust several moves (but that would not have worked since I was at a friends party where I only knew 1 person...ha!). I absolutely love Brit Brit...wish she was back on the Pepsi scene as well!!
These all look awesome!
Delicioso!
Just like a Pray was my favorite part too. I think people gave her too much crap. It was one of the better shows from the last several years.
