Well, at least my cupcakes scored big...

Really, how cute are these cupcakes? I got the idea online, and happily was able to recreate them. We took them, along with some Chex mix (a la Bryan) and Buffalo Wings, over to our Super Bowl party on Sunday night. Of course, normally we wouldn't be able to make such awesome American treats, but a friend of a friend was able to hook us up with some American ingredients from the nearby Army base. Those lucky base-pass holders!

The party was really fun, but man was it hard watching the game. Not only was it sad to see the Bears lose (although I'm kind of happy for Peyton Manning, since he's a UT boy), but here in Deutschland the game aired from 12:30am to 4am (with only British commercials. sucky). That's dedication, I tell ya. We went over to Katie and Carl's at 10pm and joined a group of 5 other Americans, and proceeded to munch on all sorts of American goodies. Shravanthi made a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup ice cream pie with Oreo crust, and Katie made all kinds of awesome chip-n-dip combos. Even though the Bears lost, the game was fun to watch and we all felt a little bit like kids at a slumber party, staying up all night and pigging out on junk food. Too bad no one fell asleep, cause we would've totally done that shaving-cream-in-the-hand-and-tickle-the-nose thing. :)

I think Grandma Miller would be amused to know that her party mix receipe was now known of two continents!
