Hey y’all! I’m here to tell ya’ that I am one happy gal this week. As you may know I shared our family’s favorite Home of the 12’s Chili Recipe prior to the Seattle Seahawks game a couple of weeks ago. Well two things happened after that post. First of all, the Seahawks won that tense game against the Dallas Cowboys – WOOT! Secondly, the interest in my recipe was so GREAT that I’ve been asked by the admins of the Home of the 12’s Facebook page to share a Game of the Week Recipe for the remainder of the football season – WOOT! WOOT! You might know that there was a little happy dancing going on around our house!
This week I’m sharing our recipe for Pike Place Market Crab Stew. Very fitting since we are playing the crabby Cardinals! If you are a Hawks fan (or a wannabe) head on over to join the growing group of fans at the Home of the 12’s Facebook page. As of now we are 67,750 members strong and pushing toward 110,000 members with a great giveaway for the one who brings in the most members.
