Bob Armstrong Dip aka Tex-Mex Queso Recipe
Bob Armstrong Dip aka Tex-Mex Queso Recipe A few weeks ago, I arrived home to find one of the greatest things in life – a surprise package on my doorstep. My sweet friend Pam sent me a box with a card, some bridal magazines, and The Austin Cookbook. As much as I love California, I desperately miss food from Austin, which made this book one of the best gifts I received in a while. Mark immediately flipped to the Bob Armstrong Dip aka Tex-Mex Queso Recipe and asked if we could please make it the first Sunday of football. Um, duh, of course, we can!

Jar of Hearts by Jennifer Hillier Book Review
Jar of Hearts by Jennifer Hillier Book Review The lowdown from Goodreads Publication Date June 12, 2018 This is the story of three best friends: one who was murdered, one who went to prison, and one who’s been searching for the truth all these years . . . When she was sixteen years old, Angela Wong—one of the most popular girls in school—disappeared without a trace.

Lemon & Elderflower Champagne Cocktail
Lemon & Elderflower Champagne Cocktail My grandmother always orders Champagne Cocktails when we go out to dinner, and champagne was the drink of choice at most of our holiday family gatherings. Champagne makes everything feel special – it turns breakfast into fancy brunch or a normal evening into a celebration. I can’t put my finger on why we all love to drink champagne to toast special occasions, but the bubbly wine is present for many of life’s most precious moments. That being said, I love having champagne any old time, but my champagne punch is dangerous and known to make people call in sick to work. I was searching for…
Imposters Season 2
Imposters Season 2 Sarah is a Bravo TV addict, and when Imposters came on she gave it a shot right off the bat. She loved it…enough to write this blog post to tell everyone about it. She kept telling me that I needed to watch it, I kept agreeing and putting it off. Then I was sick one weekend decided to try it out, and I watched the entire season in one day. Imposters is great – suspenseful, mysterious and surprising, and it is well acted and a surprising addition to the Bravo line up. With Imposters Season 2 underway, we thought we would do a quick recap and discussion…
Crazy Ex-Girlfriend Live Tour
Crazy Ex-Girlfriend Live Tour Sarah: This weekend Jessica & I visited West Covina, California. No, we didn’t really (yet), but we did spend the night in Portland watching the Crazy Ex-Girlfriend Live show & it is unreal. If the tour is coming to your city, do what you can to get tickets! Jessica: I seriously flew to Portland to see Crazy Ex-Girlfriend Live, and it was totally worth it. It felt great to be surrounded by so many other people who love the show and Rachel Bloom as much as we do! It was totally inappropriate in all the right ways. We got a little taste of the people behind the characters,…

Irish Coffee Recipe
Irish Coffee Recipe Irish Coffee is one of the classic cocktails. You hear the term “Irish up the coffee” used very loosely, referring to putting any kind of liquor in coffee, but the real thing is done with Irish Whiskey. Ireland is known for its cold, rainy weather, so it is no surprise that one of their signature cocktails is warm and cozy. This Irish Coffee recipe is my take on the classic, just in time for St. Patrick’s Day. Ingredients The two most important things in Irish Coffee are, of course, coffee and whiskey. It is extremely important you use high quality versions of both. The coffee is where…
