WIWW: Tailgate Edition

Last weekend I headed on over to a local college for a tailgate party. Fall+Football+Food=A Happy Mandii. I wanted to show you what I wore, even though you can't see the whole outfit! You can just mix and match your items to your favorite team!

The tailgate was hosted at Youngstown State University. If you happen to know who Jim Tressel is, he used to coach at YSU, then he moved on to Ohio State University, then he got into some trouble. He had a stint in the NFL as a coordinator of some sort, now he is the President of YSU. I say all of that to say this, I root for many college football teams. I root for Ohio State University. I love what Urban Meyer has done with the team, and for us to win a National Championship last year with three different quarterbacks was a pretty big deal.

When I was in Ohio a few weeks back, I saw this Ohio state t-shirt, and knew that it belonged in my shopping cart. I paired it with a white tank underneath, and wore some skinny jeans. I wore my red Avia tennis shoes. I threw my hair in a messy bun and put on a buffalo check headband from Wal-Mart. Since it was supposed to get chilly at night I just wore a black workout jacket from Xersion that I found at JC Penney.

That was it! I was in style, and supporting my team at the same time! You can recreate this outfit too! Just pick your favorite team and go to town!

Wednesday's mean that I link up with the Pleated Poppy!

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. Once browned place off to the side. Combine your onions, garlic, diced tomatoes, and crushed tomatoes. *Sweat your onions down first, then add the garlic. Then your tomatoes.* Open your tomato sauces and spaghetti sauces (w...

Christmas/New Year's Recap

First, I just want to say that I have absolutely no pictures from Christmas. I'm terrible, I know. In my defense, I was sick all through Christmas and just wasn't feeling "it." I do however, have pictures of some of the gifts I received and New Year's. Christmas Eve dinner was hosted by my parents and I. We had lasagna, wedding soup, salad, bread, and Italian butter. I made a homemade alfredo sauce to go along with the lasagna. I also made the Italian butter, and attempted to make my homemade French bread. This year, the bread did not turn out. For dessert, I made white chocolate raspberry shooters. They were SO good! I will do a recipe on those when I make them again! After everything was cleaned up, we honestly just relaxed. I would have liked to have gone to Christmas Eve service at our church, but I was coughing, clearing my throat every 5 minutes, and blowing my nose every 10. I was a hot mess. My grandparents came back out to our house after church and w...
