Chopped up

That pretty much describes my day, maybe even the whole weekend. I got up, spent time online and made a vegetable dish I have been craving. It is called "Ugly dip". It is whole kernel corn, pimiento, grean chile and green onions in a "sauce" of mayonnaise and cream cheese. Seasoned with southwest type seasonings. I went to church, came home, and will be going to meet my friend at Wendy's in a bit. Hubby got up late and is headed back to bed. In between things I need to take the trash to the curb and get Christmas decor out, maybe put some of it up on display. You can tell, I have not even really been here. I am going to make a cream cheese and olive spread for hubby as well. I cannot believe the weekend is almost over.

That dip sounds "interesting", lol! We went to church too and I just got up from a nap.

@xFiacre Yes, quite a few of us. I believe that @1creekgirl is at times on the platform contributing to music and her husband preaches. She can correct me if I am wrong. About once a month I am a music leader on platform at my church.

@GardenGerty I can’t sing so they don’t let me lead the praise. I preach.

Oh, that would be sweet. Yes, I keep busy. In a way it helps me keep my mind off of things I cannot fix or deal with.

It is pretty tasty. I also call it "Krazy Korn" as it has whole kernel corn in it.

The weekend is rolling right along. Someone from MyLot posted a similar dip recipe once. I made it..didn't really care for it that much. However, I think that one called for jalapeno, not a big jalapeno fan, so maybe that was why.

One recipe I saw called for adding a drained can of Rotel to it, and I did not do that. One seasoning I like a lot that is really popular in our stores is Tajin. It is salt, lime and ground red pepper. Not overly hot, and the lime makes it really special.

Hubby tends not to eat, so I have to come up with goodies that help him want to eat.
