Weekend Recap: Indians Game Edition

As a true Indians fan, this will always be Jacob's Field
Baseball is one of America's great pastimes. Thanks to my parents, I grew up a Cleveland Indians fan. 1995 was a huge year for us! My family and I sat through many games, cheering on the team, and making all kinds of memories.We almost made it to the World Series, something that hasn't been done in Cleveland since 1948.

In 2007, my family and I went to 7 Indians games. The Tribe made it to the American League Division Series. We were up 3 games to 0 on the Red Sox. Well, wouldn't you know that those darn Red Sox won 4 games in a row. Made it to the World Series, and won the whole thing?

This game that we went to on Saturday was a combination of many. First, they were celebrating the 1995 team because it has been 20 years since that incredible season. (That made me feel incredibly old because I was 7 when all of this was happening. AHH!) Second, this was our first game in EIGHT YEARS! I guess it has taken me this long to get over 2007.

One of my favorite players Jason Kipnis is batting!
My dad had to work, so we left the house later than we would have liked, but we were in the ballpark an hour before game time. Since we had not been to a game in so long, we walked around the ballpark to find the food. Haha! We finally settled on a hot dog that was topped with grilled peppers and onions. When in Cleveland, you MUST get the Bertmans mustard. It is simply the best!

Unfortunately, the Tribe lost, but we had a great time! We got a 1995 Celebration t-shirt, and saw some great fireworks! In my opinion, Cleveland has the best ballpark fireworks! We enjoyed our game so much that we are already planning on going to another game!

If you are ever in Cleveland, I would definitely head on over to Progressive Field. It is a downtown ballpark with ample restaurants and a lot of parking!

What is your favorite ballpark to go to? Have you ever been to Progressive Field? I'd love to hear from you! 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. Ingredients: 2 onions 3 cans diced tomatoes 2 #10 cans of tomato sauce 1 #10 can on spaghetti sauce 1 heaping tsp of garlic minced 2 (28 oz) cans of crushed tomatoes 4 (6 oz) cans of tomato paste 1 tsp sugar Onion and garlic salt, italian seasoning, parsley, oregano to taste 1 pound of each: ground meat, hot and sweet sausage Look at the deliciousness!  In a skillet brown your meat and sausage in a little oil.

Then your tomatoes.* Open your tomato sauces and spaghetti sauces (w...

High Five for Friday

I've done it again. #badblogger I can't wait until school is out and I have free time to write, photograph, and post my blogs! As usual, I am linking up with Lauren ! Here are my thoughts about the week! 1. It's Friday, and for that I am very grateful! 2. I am getting my hair cut tomorrow! I'm keeping my length, but I might add a few extra layers to give me more volume! I can't wait! My hair has been especially knotty when I get out of the shower. 3. I ordered new contacts and glasses from Wal-Mart Vision Center. I've had really good luck with them! 4. Did any of you catch the premier of The Night Shift on Tuesday? I think this will be a good replacement for me until Chicago Fire comes back on! 5. I am very much looking forward to sleeping in! What did you love about the week? Leave me a comment and let me know! I'd love to hear from you!
