SUPER BOWL XLVII or what's cookin on the plantation today

now all y'all know the plantation is part of the WhoDat Nation (for those who don't know what that means: The New Orleans Saints Geaux Saints) and we have pretty much cast aside all former (american) football allegiances, the raiders, the rams, the forty-niners UNTIL today...

there's going to be a super bowl party here tonight with Big Shelly and Miss K. the MITM started prepping and cooking yesterday and we are ready! today we're setting aside political debate, hard news stories, international concerns, and most definitely, business, to indulge in SUPER BOWL SUNDAY! 

oh, and the menu?

Moules À La Marière   (Mussels in white wine, crème fraîche and shallots)

Braised Short Ribs in a red wine reduction sauce
Pan-roasted Root Vegetables
Garlic Mashed Potatoes

all of his recipes came from The Balthazar Cookbook.

i'm betting on the 49er's winning the super bowl, but the MITM is going with the ravens.  who's with me?
