Hot Bacon/Cheese Dip and a Beach Themed Guest Room

Here's the recipe for that great cheese dip Sabrina's sister made over the weekend!

The Bacon Cheese Dip

1/2 cup of mayo

1 package of cream cheese 8 oz

1/2 cup of Colby jack cheese

Pinch of Cheyenne pepper

1/2 teaspoon of smoked paprika

4 to 6 pieces of bacon crumbled

Salt and pepper to taste

Top it with about 4 to 8 butter crackers (Ritz or toll house) crumbled

Mix everything together (make sure cream cheese is at room temp). Spread into a shallow dish and bake at 350 for 15 minutes.

Yum! YUM!!!

Summer and Sabrina both LOVE the beach and all things beach related so it was not surprising that the Junior Master Bedroom Suite had BEACH theme!

It was a spacious room and that bed is SO comfy!!

So many beautiful things to see!

Summer has had a life long love affair with the beach!

If I am seeing correctly this is a painting I did for her birthday in 1984.

This one is from the 80's as well.

Collected shells - a great place to put recent additions!

Matching lamps on either side of the bed are heavy glass. These are beloved treasures that belonged to Sabrina's grandmother.

They carried the beach theme into the bathroom.

Louis Dean loved that the bathroom had a TUB!! He's an old fashioned guy who loves his baths!

Don't know WHY I started wearing hats again!

I think I simply noticed I HAD them

!They live  hang on a clothes tree in a corner of the bedroom and I guess I started thinking of them as decorations!

This has been a different kind of Tuesday. No movie. No Goodwill.

There IS art! I have been fighting a headache for over two days now. Took Lucy for a good walk this morning. 1.7 miles. That brought my blood pressure down but my headache came back. Now I'm going to pull out the really BIG GUNS!!! I'll take a shower and wash my hair followed by a nap in my icy cold bedroom! If THAT fails, I may resort to a YORK Mint Patty! As a matter of fact - I'll go ahead and eat one on the way to the shower!

PS......pardon the funky font at the beginning of the post. I copied and pasted the recipe Donna sent me through Facebook. Blogger must be confused about something!
