So there we were enjoying the Packer game Sunday afternoon when we got the call. Surprise guests! I reviewed our half-time snack plan, and quickly audibled. I sent Vince, husband and father, long to Piggly Wiggly for a few essentials. Molly ran a down and out to the garden for some basil and she quickly whipped up pesto hummus, and I gathered the football shaped serving bowls no respectable football family should be without.

| We put this spread together in 15 minutes! |
Vince had already grilled some chicken (with barbecue sauce from Montgomery Ribs, delicious!) and burgers, so we really just needed a few special teams additions. I quickly sliced some apples and stirred up a peanut butter caramel apple dip and we came back from the commercial break ready to roll. Planned tailgates are for the rookies. It’s the spontaneous ones that will put stickers on your helmet!
