I thought I would be a responsible blogger and put a relevant post up for the Super Bowl Party you should be throwing. Being responsible is soooo overrated.
I created these delectable little crab appetizers for that Philly Cream Cheese contest I entered last year. And we all know the outcome of that. Blah-blah-blah-yadda-yadda-yadda. No hard feelings here.

Love it! I'm saving this one. I'm actually finally starting to get serious with my Super Bowl menu planning. For me, it's all about the snacks and commercials anyway. 🙂
Yummy, yummy, yummy!! I love crab and these little crabbies look fantastic. My husband is from Pittsburgh, so we are definitely Steelers fans! Black & Yellow, Black & Yellow all the way 🙂
These sound delicious. They are also relatively easy to do. That's a winning combination in my book. I hope you have a great day. Blessings…Mary

My kiddos love crab and cream cheese together. I'm making these for sure! Blah blah blah blah blah is straight out of my daughter's favorite book "What Are You So Grumpy About". Made me smile!
Your videos are always so entertaining, FN missed their chance. I enjoy how you don't take yourself too seriously, it comes off like we're just hanging out in your kitchen while you cook.
This sounds delish! I am truly lovin your blog : )
SO yummy! i love anything with crab in it, i would eat these as a main dish!
Oh man. I *love* crab! These sound way too yummy and easy – thanks for sharing!
P.S. You're still adorable. Love the videos!
Oh PERFECT!! As a Bengals fan, football is dead to me this year (only way to cope). But I might console myself with these yummy-looking little guys!
No better combo than crab and cream cheese! Love that you don't have to take out a loan to buy the crab since you don't need that much.
Leslie, I am SO glad to see you got rid of the black background. I have always liked your blog but have to admit, I could not read it because of the color. Just too hard on my eyes. It looks terrific!
You are too cute! So glad I found you over on the Philly site. You are the funniest!
These look fabulous Leslie. I'm going to add them to my Super Bowl round-up list.
These would be very dangerous for me… they look very addictive.
Yea! A video! They always make me smile.
You were destined to be a foodie! Not odd, a foodie. My kids were good about odd foods too…except one of them didn't like mushrooms. My granddaughter will try anything, thank God.
I like your crabbies…. easy too. Yummy for Super Bowl snacks.
although i'm not a fan of crab in general, i can't help but grin at the name for these noshes. cute. 🙂
