I forgot to post about the Super Bowl..

 I failed to write about our Super Bowl evening at our youngest daughters home.  Tom and Shanda hosted our family (those that could come) over to watch the game.  

We had burgers from the grill along with all the fixings... I made a new cheese dip (new to me) and I must say...it was very good.  



A block of Colby Jack cheese
A block of Pepper Jack cheese
One block of cream cheese
A can of Rotel tomatoes. 
A can of green chilies.
1 pound of browned hamburger meat cooked with a package of taco seasoning.....DRAIN after browned.
Place in a cast iron skillet and warm until you can stir everything together..
DO NOT HEAT PAST 150 degrees. 

 Place in cast iron skillet to heat...

(as a side note....if this gets too warm the cheeses begin to turn grainy, so it is best to warm just before serving)

In the photo below, you can see that Trista was our 1st quarter entertainment.  


She had invested in a square that the Ag department at school was selling as a fund raiser.  Guess what....she won!!!  Her numbers were 9 and 0 and so she ended up with the winning square for the score at the end of the first quarter.   $200.00!!  not bad for a $20.00 donation.  

It was fun watching her excitement...

Half Time Show?   We watched the alternative half time event. I don't speak Spanish, so I would not have known what the songs were about anyways coming from Bad Bunny...🤔  LOL 😐 

The half time shows were not our main goal for the evening...it was more about gathering, eating and spending time laughing... This we did a lot of.   We all were rooting for the Seahawks, which made the night a Win, Win!!    Go Kansas City Chiefs for 2027!! 

Moving on from this.......↑↑↑↑↑

Our weather has been so nice this week..  Lots of sunshine with temps reaching the upper 70's.  So many little Buds are now popping out on the tulip trees around here. 

I'll leave you all with this painted rock that we found a few years ago while visiting over in South Carolina..

Be Unique!   Happy Friday the 13th.  

Shug...💛

  1. Your cheese dip sounds delicious, Shug. Thank you for sharing the recipe. Congratulations to Trista on her win! Our weather hasn't been quite as "wintry" as it has been in the past and next week the forecast is calling for highs in the 50s all week!

  2. The cheese dip sounds like a winner, but the gatherings I go to are smallish and your recipe would be way too much.

  3. I love that rock!
    Your night with family sounds so fun. Hooray for Trista!
    Your cheese dip looks wonderful. I used to make something similar and haven't done it for some time, I just forgot about it. :) Now I'm saving yours to try - thank you!

  4. Sounds like a fun family event! your family is so good at that. congrats to Crystal on the win. We used fast forward to get through the half time, trying to find the good part, and ended up leaving it alone. Bob already knew the score and had recorded it to watch, because we go to bed at 7 and get up at 3, at 4 am he was watching it. He said do you know who won? I answered yes, do you want to know? Yes, tell me... I watched none of it except when he pointed out what someone did that he thouhgt was great and when he rewound and I watched, I just said Yay and had no idea what he meant. Paint dry is about how I feel about sports.
