Get Ready For Game Day Dips Video
You may or may not know by now that my favorite movie of all time is The Lord of The Rings.
Never mind that I didn't quite read every single solitary word of the great Tolkien trilogy (though I convinced my junior year English teacher I had.) I did, however, watch and re-watch every scene of the awesome cinematic accomplishment of Peter Jackson.
One of the best scenes takes place in the second installment, The Two Towers, when King Theoden is debating whether or not he should enter his people into war.
"I will not risk open war," he declares, as he considers the weight of his decision on the many lives entrusted to him.
In swift reply, Aragorn, who ultimately returns as the King in Part Three, illuminates the man to reality with one simple phrase:
"Open war is upon you, whether you would risk it or not."
And, with the same bluntness of Aragorn, I declare the same:
Like it or not, war is upon us. Just look around you.
Because ~ whether we would risk it or not ~ it can't be denied:
Football season is upon us.
Professionals have started exhibition games, college athletes are sweating through camp, and, across the nation and here in Pennsylvania, where high school football tradition runs long and deep, teenage boys will be marching onto their school grounds on Monday preparing for season-long battles that fire up marching bands, sell tickets, send cheerleaders in the air, crank out soft pretzels and hot dogs, and pack in fans like no other sport in the country.
Make no mistake about it, Game Day is not just a game. It is an "event."
And because no Game Day is complete without some chips and dip, so begins a sixteen-week Adventures in the Kitchen with dip recipes to use for every game, with which to enter every battle, and to use with each chip, cracker, bread, and anything in the dipping arsenal you can name.
It all starts this September. Gear up!
Have a wonderful Football Season.
