Bacon Ranch Dip

May 27, 2013

I am sooooo thankful I have the day off today. This weekend was spent with family and good friends. Don’t get me wrong. I love, love, love my family. But sometimes seeing them for two days in a row can be sort of exhausting. In the best kind of way of course!

We hit up a five-year-old dance recital on Saturday and then went right back at it with a one-year-old birthday party the next day. Lots of kids, lots of energy, and lots of loud noises.

Today we are just going to sit in quiet.

If Mike even says one word about what is for lunch, I am just going to point him to the fridge in the direction of this dip, which was prepared ahead of time because I knew how crazy this weekend would be, and tell him to grab some chips and dig in. That is just how lazy this day is going to be!

I’m not even embarrassed!

    Awww lady, I know just how you feel. I’ve been staring like a deer in the headlights the last couple of days because I’m so tired. I need a couch, some junk TV and a big ol’ bowl of this dip to recuperate!
