It seems like every time I search for baseball oriented items (like stickers, night lights, gift bags, etc.) all that’s available is football, soccer, and basketball. I don’t get it! Isn’t baseball supposed to be America’s favorite pastime?
We are definitely a baseball family. Son plays, father plays…and coaches. I grew up watching it with my dad and have always loved it. I know it’s a slow sport, but it’s also very complicated. I’m still learning new things all these years later.
After hibernating through the winter, we always look forward to Spring ball – bring on the clean turf, snack shack, and families we don’t see very often! But by June, we are DONE. Done with the league politics, rules, and drama – it’s changed so much since I was a kid. Then we get a nice long break in the summer, which makes us all excited for Fall ball! Rinse, repeat.
This year, however, Fall ball has been cancelled due to low registration numbers. We are beyond bummed. And I just cannot get on board with football. Ugh. So maybe…tennis?
Football season is right around the corner though, and even though I couldn’t care less about watching the games, it’s always a great excuse to have friends over. And feed them. Dips.
I took my beloved Chile Relleno Casserole and turned it into this awesome party dip several years ago. Recently I added some cooked pork chorizo, which took it up about 10 notches. So good, you guys. Everyone I serve this to, loves it!
