Surviving Sports

NBA Playoff Party Anyone? 

Remember the NBA playoffs against the Heat and Spurs is June 5 @ 9 p.m. ET

Well if you must sit through seven possible games, please make it worth it for yourself. Here I have supplied food ideas for your NBA playoff. So invite that cute boy over to your apartment and impress him with NBA lingo as well as awesome NBA food.

Well lets get creative, how EASY is it to do a burger with some awesome basketball shaped cheese? I would be impressed, my husband would be impressed and really that is all that matters. 









Lets take that a step further and do the same cheese idea BUT put it on crackers with a little meat. STOP THE BUS, how easy and fast! Everyone will want to come to your apartment for all games, you will be the talk of the sporting world (among your friends) 












Another quick treat, is throwing some sugar cookies together with orange frosting, the hard part comes when pipping the cookie to look like a basketball, yes I know it sounds hard. Never fear I found a step by step picture of what it looks like.

• Tip on saving money- instead of buying a piping bag, just pour the frosting in a Ziploc baggie,  cut the tip off and there you have it, a homemade piping bag. 

With all parties, veggies and dip is a must, so why not get crafty and make a basketball veggie tray? Take a look to your left, now how cute is that? This is really simple first, you take a pie tin, fill it with ranch, then add standing carrots and make the basketball lines with cucumber slices. This quick treat will make all the boys come to your yard!
