Goodbye 2014 & Hello 2015
We ushered out 2014 by playing some golf and ushered in 2015 by watching some football.
Life is good. 🙂
I am looking forward to the new year, but am sad that football season is almost over.
Today, the Big Ten held their own, with Wisconsin and Michigan State wins.
Unfortunately, Michigan was not in the playoffs.
BUT, if you noticed my golf “uniform”, I was thinking GO BLUE, while waiting for confirmation that Jim Harbaugh is now our new coach.
I am very excited and looking forward to next season.
WOLVERINES!!
And now, I am watching Oregon and Florida State, but I am really looking forward to the Sugar Bowl, Alabama vs Ohio State.
Since Ohio State is Michigan’s nemesis and Mr Wonderful is Alabama Alumni ~ ROLL TIDE.
Happy New Year
The Wolverines are on the Prowl!!!

Football and golf, not necessarily in that order.
On tap today, we have the meanest, baddest Wolverines in the nation.

Okay, that’s it for now.

Football Season has begun and all I can say is GO BLUE!
 The Michigan Wolverines have the most all-time wins and the highest winning percentage in college football history. It has, in my opinion, the most awesome helmet and it’s fight song has their competitors shaking in their shoes before they ever arrive at the gate. Michigan Stadium has record-breaking attendance and many rivalries. The annual season-ending game against Ohio State was once voted as ESPN’s best sports rivalry.
That being said – ARE YOU READY FOR SOME WOLVERINE FOOTBALL?
~~~~~~~~~~~~
The greatest college football march ever composed! So said the legendary John Philip Sousa. “The Victors” is called the “1812 Overture” and “Stars & Stripes” of all college football marches or fight songs.
In case you don’t know the words and I KNOW you want to sing along, I have included a second version just for YOU. Most of the time, only the chorus is sung. Look below for the full lyrics.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Another season of football and I am so excited. I love my Michigan, but I watch and enjoy a good game no matter who it is. I want to spend my Saturdays, Sundays, Mondays and Thursdays in front of the TV. I do not want a knock on the door or a ring on the phone. Please honor my wishes and DON’T BOTHER ME. Not only will I bite, I may……………

The Michigan Fight Song
It was composed by UM student Louis Elbel in 1898.
Now for a cheer they are here, trimphant!
Here they come with banners flying,
In stalwart step they’re nighing,
With shouts of Vict’ry crying,
We hurrah, hurrah, we greet you now, Hail!
Far we their praises sing
For the glory and fame they’ve bro’t us
Loud let the bells them ring
For here they come with banners flying
Far we their praises tell
For the glory and the fame they’ve bro’t us
Loud let the bell them ring
For here they come with banners flying
Here they come, Hurrah!
(chorus)
Hail! to the victors valiant
Hail to the conqu’ring heroes
Hail! Hail! to Michigan
The leaders and best!
Hail! to the victors valiant
Hail! to the conu’ring heroes
Hail! Hail! to Michigan,
The Champions of the West!
(break strain)
We cheer them
We cheer and cheer again
For Michigan, we cheer for Michigan
We cheer with might and main
WE cheer, cheer, cheer
With might and main we cheer!
(chorus)
An alternate set of lyrics were found in University athletic files circa the 1920s. Did Elbel write them – no one knows.
Hail! to our Alma Mater!
Hail! to dear old Ann Arbor
Hail! Hail! to Michigan
The Athens of the West!

MID-WEEK MIXERS by Naomi Blackburn
Brown Sugar Smokies with Brown Sugar Sauce
Adapted: Allrecipes.com
These are must haves in the Blackburn home. These bad boys are so simple to make they are unbelievable. Partner with the sauce and you have a great entertainment appetizer.
Basically, the Brown Sugar Smokies are bacon wrapped mini sausages that are wrapped in a quarter slice of bacon and coated with brown sugar. The sauce also has 3 simple ingredients of mayo, brown sugar and bottled bbq sauce. Yep, it really is that simple!
So, here we go!:
Sausages:
Ingredients:
1 pound bacon
1 (16 ounce) package little smokie sausages
1 cup brown sugar, or to taste
Directions:
1) Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2) Cut bacon into thirds and wrap each strip around a little sausage.
3) Place the wrapped sausages on wooden skewers, several to a skewer.
4) Arrange the skewers on a baking sheet and sprinkle them liberally with brown sugar.
5) Bake about 30 minutes or until bacon is crisp and the brown sugar melted.
Sauce:
Ingredients:
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup barbeque sauce
2 tablespoons brown sugar
Directions:
1) Stir together mayonnaise, barbeque sauce, and brown sugar in a small bowl until the brown sugar has dissolved. Chill while smokies bake!
