Are you watching the game with family? Friends? Streaming “Bridgerton” on Netflix instead?
For those looking for a place to go, we have a list of places hosting Super Bowl watch parties, where the beer will be flowing and wings frying.
Lifestyles Reporter Alex Cutler has that list here.
Some reports show more than $1 billion will be spent on wings just for the Super Bowl. Yep, billion with a “b.” The estimate for this year is 1.48 billion wings served.
Enjoy the final football weekend of the season, and go ... Seatriots? Pathawks? (The Brad-and-Angelina mashup of the team names escapes me.)

Joui Wine elevates Dayton’s wine scene
The walls have pops of color. The cocktails have playful names like “Venus in Blue Jeans” and “Passing Through Pottsfield.” But what matters most is this: the Joui Wine staff never makes you feel inadequate for not knowing a ton about wine, food & dining content creator Anne Kane says.
Review: Four-course Duckhorn wine dinner at Carrabba’s
When Food Wine & Dine Writer Ray Marcano heard Carrabba’s Italian Grill in Washington Twp. has a four-course Duckhorn wine dinner, he was intrigued by it being a casual spot with a reasonable per-person price point ($60 plus tax and tip).
He shares his review with us here, noting the dinner was a little too quick.
“The dinner started at 6:30 p.m., and the checks came by 7:40 p.m. That’s far too fast for a wine dinner, which should be relaxing so you can enjoy the experience and company. A little more leisure would go a long way.”

Here’s the recipe:
Ingredients:
- 1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
- ¾ cup brown sugar
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 tsp. vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 1 ½ cups cake flour
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 1 tsp. baking powder
- ¼ tsp. cardamom
- ½ tsp. salt
- 1 jar Bonne Maman Cranberry-Cherry Preserves
- 1 11 oz. package of white chocolate chips
- 1 1 oz. bag of freeze-dried raspberries
Directions: Prepare the jelly filling by dropping ½ tbsp. of preserves into a silicon mold or directly onto parchment paper for a total of 13 dollops. Place the preserves in the freezer while you prepare the cookie dough.
Use a handheld or standing mixer with paddle attachment to cream together butter and sugar until smooth. Add eggs, one at a time, and mix until well combined. Add vanilla extract and beat for another 30 seconds.
In another bowl, mix both kinds of flour, baking soda, baking powder, cardamom and salt. Sift the dry ingredients into the butter-egg mixture and mix until just combined.
Place the dough in the refrigerator and chill for 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
To assemble the cookies, take about ¼ cup of dough and roll it into a ball. Use your palm to flatten the dough. Place the frozen preserves onto the center of the dough. Take the edges up over the jelly and gently press and roll to seal the dough. Repeat until you have a total of 13 cookies.
Place cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, 6 cookies to a sheet. Bake for 12-14 minutes or until edges start to become golden brown.
Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 10-15 minutes.
Melt white chocolate over a pot of simmering water. Spread melted chocolate onto the bottom of each cookie. Drizzle the tops of each cookie with white chocolate and sprinkle on crushed freeze-dried raspberries. Allow chocolate to set before serving.
