Hellllo, and happy almost Super Bowl Friday!

No matter who wins or loses, everyone is betting on a great Super Bowl with all the best food and frivolity. We’re making these wings, this dip (always!), and these sliders and I cannot wait. If you don’t have your menu lined up yet, check out the three Super Bowl-themed emails I sent to my subscribers this week here, here, and here. If you aren’t on the list, sign up!
One of my fave parts of the game is the friendly wagers happening during the game. This free Super Bowl bingo card should absolutely be part of the fun. But the big question remains: Will Kendrick Lamar diss Drake during thes halftime show?
Ok, this might be the cutest Valentine’s idea yet (it’s next Friday, friends!). A few years ago I partnered with Chewy on this video and I’m so glad I have it now that two of our four-legged stars have passed. Anyway, they’re sponsoring “Dogs’ Date Out” to give adoptable puppers a break from shelter life and hopefully connect them with their forever family. What a great way to spread love! Promoting adoption is the goal, but even if you can’t yet make a long-term commitment, you can still spend the day with them. Select shelters are participating all over the U.S., from New York to California. You can find your state, contact a local organization, and schedule a doggy date for Valentine’s Day weekend here and you’ll even get some fun swag. This isn’t a sponsored promo, I just think it’s a great idea.
Or, if flowers are more your Vday thing, check out this LEGO flower arranging workshop by florist extraordinaire Jeff Leatham, who before he became the Kardashian’s defacto florist was my little sister’s high school prom date—true story!

Spring cleaning is good and all, but I’m not one to wait for blooming flowers to give my kitchen an overhaul.
