National Corndog Day

Thomas and I always look forward to our favorite holiday of the year - National Corndog Day - which takes place on the first Saturday of the NCAA basketball tournament. Even though I was 38 weeks and one day pregnant this year, we were determined to celebrate it like always. We invited lots of friends and co-workers over to our house for lots of eating and game-watching.

For those of you who don't know about Corndog Day (http://www.corndogday.com/), the goal is to eat as many corndogs, tater tots, and canned American beers as possible. You have from the tipoff of the first game (at about 10 am) until the last buzzer (about 8 pm) to do it. The ultimate goal is to complete the triple-double - 10 corndogs, 10 beers, and 100 tater tots. We didn't have anyone make that goal this year, but Thomas was a surprise contender, setting a personal best of 7/7/70. I was handicapped by Baby Harvey taking up all the space in my stomach this year. But I still managed 6 corndogs during the day.

Here I am manning the oven and holding my very own non-alcoholic Old Milwaukee beer (who knew they made these!?!?!?).
