WIWW: NCAA Tournament Edition

First of all, my bracket is toast. My South region is a mess, and worst of all my mom is beating my dad and I. (She is definitely letting us know about it too!) We're supposed to be the basketball pros, and here she is whipping our tail. (Love you Mom!)

If you want to read about my tournament experience, you can find it here!

Wednesday's mean that I link up with the Pleated Poppy to show you my outfit! Today, I wanted to show you what I wore during the NCAA Tournament in Pittsburgh!

I wanted to look cute, but sporty. I didn't really have any affiliation to the teams that we saw, (except Butler. Along with Duke, I love me some Butler basketball!) so it wasn't necessary for me to wear a shirt with a team name on it.

So I wore my ESPN shirt. My shirt read "ESPN YES, YES, YES!!" The back of it read "Yes I'm a woman, Yes, I know the game, Yes I watch ESPN."

That shirt could not have been more perfect for me. I paired it with jeans, and my red tennis shoes. Now, I find it a fashion faux paus to wear jeans with tennis shoes, but for this occasion, it looked good, and turned out being a really cute outfit!

Again, another outfit photo with no shoes!

Outfit Details:

Shirt: ESPN Zone in Baltimore
Jeans: T3 from Lane Bryant
Shoes: Avia from Wal-Mart

This was a simple way to look cute and sporty, while still cheering on the teams! I would definitely wear this outfit again, even to get groceries in!!

How would you dress for a tournament game? Leave me a comment and let me know!

Cooking for a Crowd: Spaghetti Sauce

My family likes to save money when we have parties. One way to do so is to cook everything ourselves, instead of hiring a caterer. Today, I wanted to give you a recipe for spaghetti sauce that will feed a crowd. This recipe is best made in an 18 quart roast pan. We bought most of our sauces and tomato paste at Costco.
