San Francisco 49ers Tailgate

My sister, Sarah, and her fiance, John, were in Napa for a wedding a couple weekends ago so we decided to go to a 49ers game on Sunday with my Dad.  John proposed to Sarah about a month ago and the whole family is so excited for the newly engaged and to welcome John to our family.  He's pretty much the best guy I've ever met, which means he's perfect for my sister :)  Congratulations Sarah and John!

I made double batches of the tailgate food because the day before the football game I had my girlfriends over for Fleet Week and figured it would be easier to serve the same food two days in a row. Niky posted about Fleet Week here if you want to check it out!

The 49ers game against Tampa Bay turned out to be an amazing win (48 to 3 - wow) and the 49ers beat Detroit on Sunday, which means their record is 5-1.  Holy Moly.  Way to go niners!

Summer Corn Salad (I added red bell pepper)

Sausage with sauteed red onion and red bell pepper

Bean Salad/Dip with Crostinis (Bean Salad consisted of white beans, sun dried tomatoes, olives, feta, parsley, salt, pepper, olive oil, and lemon juice)

Guacamole (I like mine salty with plenty of lime juice.  Don't forget to leave the pits in to keep the avocados green)
