Dip Me

{Jesica's Dip}

Within hours after my last post my sister-in-law Mary send me a text.  She couldn't wait to get this dip recipe.  This may not seem like a big deal, but she just had a baby and the text was so long it was in 2 parts.  Now that's drive.

Mary, here you go.  Feed those post-pardum cravings.;) 

Ah, Jesica.  Thank-you.  She brought this killer fruit dip and believe me when I say it "wowed" the masses at the family reunion.  If you look closely you'll notice there isn't much left in that large bowl...and I wasn't the only one who put more on their plate--without any fruit.;)

Man, it was GOOD.

Who needs that top button anyway.  

You must know by now that I'm a lover of good food.  Hence, these next pictures.  Heaven forbid I don't document this part of the reunion.  And who knows, maybe you'll be inspired like I was...:)

Giganto Pietro's Pizza.  Memory made. This pizza hasn't changed since I was a kid, and it made my day--and I have a feeling I wasn't the only one loving it...

The grill and the future of our legal system...

This fall my brother {in the white} starts is journey with law in Arizona.
Good luck Matt.
Good luck Arizona.

Oh, and the hamburgers and hot dogs were superb.

{I-Scream}

I love the memories of my grandma scooping us ice cream for us in the summer.  Just the plain old vanilla, chocolate, and if we were lucky, strawberry.   And what kid {or grown up} doesn't love a good ice cream cone? 

Messy?  Yes.  Worth it? You betcha.

 

{Blues}
While the guys went golfing the 1st day of the reunion a few of us decided to go pick some of those juicy, sweet, succulent blueberries.

It was cousin Ezra's 1st time.  He caught on quick.  Although he'd had a rough couple of days {check out his black eye -not to mention Aidan's teeth marks on the side of  his face.  Yeah, I know.}, but I think the blueberries hit the spot...especially when he figured out he could throw them. ;)

Oh Aidan...

If I had a choice I'd almost always choose chocolate cake over pie...but not when it comes to this fresh blueberry delight.  Pioneer Woman is famous for a reason.  I had 2 pieces for breakfast yesterday and didn't regret it one bit. 

{More}
Next up in my reunion marathon is some more cute kids and great activity ideas...I know you can hardly wait.;)

See you soon.
