Can't we all just get along...

Sad for our Cougs! We all still managed to get along and have a fun time! 
Unfortunately there is still no camera in the Nelson household and we couldn't capture the party! Trust me when I say there was lots of yummy food, lots of blue and white decor/team gear {except for the "pretend" rebel Marx family!}, and lots of fun!!

I thought I would post this recipe on my blog since I had some requests for it! It's a MAJOR hit at parties! The best part is it's super easy! I felt so honored to receive this recipe from my sis-in-law Dest, so you should all feel lucky to have it too!

BLT DIP with BAGUETTES 

1 C. Sour Cream
1 C. Mayo
1 lb. Real Bacon Bits
1 Bunch Green Onions
1 Tomato
1-2 Baguettes
1 Bag Chopped Lettuce

If you purchase whole bacon, cook according to directions and chop into bits {I usually buy real bacon bits in the salad dressing section}. Combine sour cream, mayo, chopped green onions, and bacon. Mix well and chill in fridge to allow the dip to set up. When you are ready to serve gently stir in the chopped tomato.
I spread the chopped lettuce around the edge of the platter with the baguettes {sliced on an angle} on top and the dip bowl in the middle!
It looks and tastes soo yummy and fancy, but it's a simple appetizer that doesn't take too much time, and it's definitely a crowd pleaser!
Now Mandy, I need you to post the bean dip on your blog!!

Hope you enjoy, and don't worry Cougs, we'll get em' next year!
