How about making soft pretzels?? There is also a recipe on joy the baker's blog on how to make pretzel dogs...i made them this week and they were awesome! There is also an article on this month's Martha Stewart Living magazine on how to host a beer tasting party...I forget what recipes were on there, but I think buffalo shrimp was one of them.
