(First posted in 2012, when the Giants really were on their way to the Superbowl. Alas, in 2013 and 2014, they did not even make the playoffs. The recipe still works, tho.\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42<\/span><\/p>\n

********<\/span><\/p>\n

I don\u2019t like to brag, but my team is going to the SUPERBOWL! And with a heart attack OT win! We expected a great game, but this was outstanding!<\/span><\/p>\n

Sheila wasn\u2019t all that happy about the Giants getting this far, but our fan rivalry is (mostly) good-natured and she took the ribbing pretty well.\u00a0 At least she didn\u2019t boo or wear her (purposely anonymous here) team\u2019s colors during the game.<\/span><\/p>\n

People descended on the house an hour before the playoff game against the 49ers, ready to eat. The guys from Homicide brought cheese steaks, Sheila put together subs, and I made our famous football soup. This one is a surprise favorite with our crowd, just right for the people who can\u2019t handle my four-alarm chili and can be fixed from scratch to bowl in the time it takes to cook the rice.<\/span><\/p>\n

      Like the vegetable combination, but want to make it into a meal all on its own? Add meatballs. Now that’s a hearty soup.\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42<\/span><\/p>\n
