So apparently Jimmy Fallon is inviting himself to dine with some Minnesotans while he's here for his live Tonight Show following the Super Bowl. He's not from here so he wouldn't know that we don't just invite ourselves over to someone's house for dinner. In fact, we have to be invited a minimum of three times before we can accept anything.

If you're looking for comfort food, this Big Mac Hot Dish is just the thing on a cold winter day. Seriously, it's really tasty and super easy to make. I grew up on Tang and Pop Tarts, going to McDonald's was a rare thing in my family and quite a treat when it did happen. The only reason to go to McDonald's back then was
