A little frustrated! I can't find a 1st Birthday present for Avery that satisfies me.
It can't be huge and us manage to get it loaded into the car with our other luggage. And, though she has enough toys and clothes that she really, honestly doesn't need anything...the smaller choices of toys I'm coming across just aren't seeming to make a hit with my Grandmother's presents scale. And, while a savings bond or savings account would probably make more sense...blaaahhh...boring! Toys are more exciting for the kid...
And, yes...I realize that this is sounding materialistic...but...this is her 1st birthday, after all!!
I wasn't too impressed with Marie's first b'day present, either...
Must have used up all my presents buying ideas on Xander, Grace and Greta earlier on....also, Kelsey and Malia haven't fared well with my ideas these last few years either!!
This is stupid! of all things to write a blog about!!
Good Grief!!
I could at least post a recipe or something useful!!
LOL
Here's one to serve at your Super Bowl Party...or whatever...it's tried, true and yummy!! EASY to make and while it's not healthful in the respect of low-fat...it is a winner for a hot dip with crackers!! I even caught people eating it like a veggie dish...it worked!!

2 packages (8 oz each) cream cheese, softened
2 cups (16 oz) sour cream
1 medium onion, chopped
2 Tablespoons mayo
1 pound sliced bacon, cooked and crumbled
4 cups (16 oz) shredded cheddar cheese, divided
Assorted crackers
In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, sour cream, onion, and mayo until smooth. Fold in bacon and 3 cups of the cheddar cheese. Transfer to a 2-qt baking dish. Sprinkle with the remaining cheddar cheese. Bake, uncovered, at 375 for 30 min or until lightly browned. Serve with crackers.
