Family Hike to The Tent Rocks

We packed a light lunch and headed up the road for a short Saturday morning hike up to Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks National Monument.  Kasha-Katuwe means white cliffs. The cone shaped tent rock formations are the products of volcanic eruptions that occurred 6 to 7 millions years ago and left pumice, ash and tuff deposits over 1,000 feet thick.

Hair Show 2013



So, my stylist asked me to be a hair show. This experience was full of wine, hanging out with my fabulous stylist, anxiety and my dress not arriving to the venue. I have never participated in such an event, but it really was a cool experience. So what happens when the dress that fits you like a glove doesn't show up??? Well, they figure out a way to make a size 16 dress fit your size 10 body! Anywho, It worked out... But my booty didn't look as good in the first dress (insert sad face ) but the show had to go on and I did my best to rock it!

Let Christmas 2013 Commence!












SANTA IS HERE!! The thing about taking our Prince to see Santa this early in the season is two fold 1) I'm not sure how much longer he will believe 2) There are no lines.

So, once I learned that the big man was at the mall, it was a no brainer. It doesn't hurt that this mall is amazing and there were pants at Macy's I wanted to grab....oh and not let's ignore the fact that there is a Starbucks on both levels.

Merry Christmas!!!!

Ho Ho Ho.... and all that jazz.


 
His present from Santa.

Jalapeno Popper Dip

This is a fairly mild dip, because let's not forget our Prince eats all thing we eat (and maybe I'm a punk when it comes to heat)... I diced extra jalapeƱos for King Dad to add to his portion...I also sliced my finger open....no matter, the cooking must go on.

If you want hot, leave the seeds in and/or add a couple more peppers.

A huge thanks to my momma for the yummy homegrown peppers! I love you.

I have to say that this dip so good, it's dangerous.

 
What you need:

1 package organic cream cheese, room temperature
1cup organic sharp cheddar
1/4 cup diced green onion
6 - 8 organic jalapeƱos, seeded and diced
1/4 cup vegetarian freshly grated Parmesan
1/4 tsp salt


What you do: 
Mix it all together.

Place in untreated baking container.

Bake on 400 for 15 minutes.

Serve warm with chips, cracker or sliced veggies
