What a day for National Days! There are at least nine to choose from, everything from Ag Day to Tamales. Some revolve around particular dishes, such as Melba Toast, while others just bring a smile like Puppy Day. Who doesn’t love puppies?

Best Darn Taco-Margarita Bar in Town
Let’s start with mixing up our own Taco Seasoning, making our own Chorizo and then putting out a build-it-your-way Taco bar. Who needs restaurants to be open? A restaurant means you have to put on pants, get in the car and drive somewhere. Depending upon where you live and how “open” things are, that could be a long, long drive.

The opening game is just two weeks away, with Green Bay at Chicago for the Thursday Night Game. There’s only one thing to do to win his attention and that is to make a few favorite game day munchies.
It’s National Eat Your Beans Day
Once again I turned to the Nation Whatever calendar for a little inspiration. (Is that cheating? Gosh, I hope not!) Today offered three choices – National Fried Clam Day, National Chocolate Wafer Day or National Eat Your Beans Day.
My Big Game Day Menu
While Hubby watched the two remaining play-off games, I began the rather difficult task of putting together this year’s actual Super Bowl Game Day menu. (Truth be told, I was hoping it would be Kansas City and New Orleans Saints in Atlanta. How easy is that? Barbecue and Cajun dishes with a southern spin! Didn’t happen, but that’s okay, too).
