Cookie Dough Dip- Welcome back to blogging!

It's the holiday season and only 4 days til Christmas! This weekend, somewhere in the midst of our annual family Christmas day downtown, baking, caroling and watching Elf,  Emily suggested I bring my blog back to life. Not really sure why I let this go, but I have to admit I've missed it! And I have been thinking about it for a while myself, so as a Christmas gift to you I'll try to post a few times over the next 2 weeks of my vacation. Wish me luck!

When I was looking thru the recipes I have already posted, I tried to do a little cleaning up and clarifying to make things easier to find.  I'm adding the recipe names to each blog post title so hopefully that will help a bit. While I was at it I discovered several unfinished "drafts".  This one seems like it might come in handy at this time of year, because you know...you might need to bring some food to an upcoming party, or to a get together, or to put out in the break room at work, and this is a very yummy, quick & easy recipe that will work for any of those situations! Hope you and your friends like it! So..., my next post will be much better, but for now I'm  looking forward to celebrating with you both and wishing you a Merry Christmas!
