Hockey Nibblies

Larry is a HUGE hockey fan. He still plays hockey too. Yesterday was the day for the college hockey finals. He and some of his hockey buddies wanted to watch the game and cheer on our local team, DU or Denver University. DU won, 2-0. Erik and Shannon hosted the gathering at their house, and they have 2 giant screen TV’s where the game was viewed on both screens. Larry volunteered us to make most of the nibblies. So we co-hosted the game.

It was just a small gathering, but I still managed to provide a good, healthy hockey feast.

I made a big fresh fruit platter, which was greatly appreciated. All the fruit was so juicy and sweet.

I also made a charcuterie platter with a bunch of different cheeses and sausage, and a variety of crackers and spreads as well.

And I made yet another version of my shrimp ceviche, this time adding some red pepper and pineapple.

The pineapple was a fun edition that made it a little more tropical and very cool and refreshing.

Larry even contributed as well. He made a buffalo chicken dip. I have no idea what his recipe was and I know he didn’t take pictures. (This is a stock photo). All I knew was I was NOT going to touch it at all. There were way too many ingredients I don’t like involved in this dish. 🙂

Our team won and we made a good dent in all the nibblies, and everyone had a good time. All in all, yet another fun day in the books. We do our best to make them all good times and good days too. 🙂

Have a great day and make everyday great, even if just gathering with friends to cheer on your favorite team. Stay safe and stay well. ‘Til next time.

      1. That is cool. One of my neighbors in Sweden, Peter Forsberg, used to play for Avalanche. Well he lived a few houses away, not the next house over. My cousin and him used to play together when they were little. It was a small village called Domsjö outside Örnsköldsvik.
