confessions of a guitar hero addict

confession:
i have not spent a single minute of today on my book club book
(as previously mentioned i was to spend the entire day reading).
my guilt was lessened when LP sent me an email saying she was behind too,
so not to worry about finishing.
oh no,
the procrastination has been fed.
and so was my tummy...
guitar hero play date today
was what
i
did
instead.
well, more like the babies played
and we ate this:
it was really good.
tammy's artichoke dip.
but tammy was missing!
have you seen this mama?
m.i.a.
get well soon taylor!
the babies shared a binky
(really, it was so cute)
the bigger kids played "putput" golf down our hallway.
the "grown ups" (i guess i'm one of those now?),
well we chatted,
and ate...
and chatted...
and ate...and played guitar hero...and ate...
and chatted.
it was good for the soul.
and for the tummy
(as previously mentioned).
and for the kids/babies.
for sure, we did the entire thing for them;-)
not for ourselves at all.
we are that selfless!
;-)
tammy's artichoke dip:
1 pkg softened cream cheese (i microwaved it for 30-60 sec)
1/4 c. mayo
1 can artichoke hearts, drained
1 4 oz. can diced green chilies
1 c. grated parmesan
garlic salt (a few shakes)
mix it all together
bake at 350* for 30 min.
serve with chips pipin' hot!
seriously,you might want to make it tonight.
word of the day: smokin'
as in "that's smokin' hot."
