Making of Pre-game Show

Early on into my blogging, I posted a video of the introduction to each Freezer home game. Well, on the team's Facebook Page today, I came across a video that shows how they made the pre-game show. Although the narration is all in German, I'm sure you will all get the gist! If anything, you'll see it at a better angle than in my video! Kevin is sending me to tonight's playoff game with the playbook to record some more action. The guys are down 2-1 in the series so be rooting for them today! Tschüss!

Kevin: 0, The Stove: 1

I have been wanting Kev to cook for me for quite a while now. And by cook I meant something other than skillet frying up some chicken and putting it together with some Uncle Ben's Microwave minute rice. Not that I have anything against Uncle Ben's! I've been vocalizing this desire more and more ever since the Scherenbergs gave him Esquire's "Eat Like a Man" cookbook for his birthday last month.

Well, he brought music to my ears when he picked me up from the train station today and said we had to go to the store and get Bourbon for a recipe from his book. Bourbon and brown sugar salmon. Sounds amazing! And seeing as the directions say to cook it in a skillet, he's picked a great first recipe, simple and not venturing too far from the chicken he's so familiar with. And he only has to start with a main entree as I would make our sides.

Love seeing him look through this book!

He put his skillet on the stovetop, seasoned his salmon, waited a bit too long, added the butter and brown sugar, and the next thing you know... smoke everywhere and the fire alarm is going off. The salmon never made it to the skillet. It didn't help that we were in a hurry to get downtown for his chiropractor appointment so there was a bit of pressure on him. We didn't have time to cook up the salmon at all, so we took our zucchini and sweet potato fries on the road with us. At least it made for a funny story and can't wait for him to try Round 2 in the kitchen! Tschüss!

Friday, the Freezers clinched 5th place and a spot in the playoffs!

According to the teams facebook page, The guys already know that they will be playing the 4th place team, Mannheim. The first game of this quarterfinal round begins March 21st!
