Funfetti What??

Earlier this week, my friend Jelly's little girl, celebrated her 2nd birthday. There was no big party or anything. Not until this weekend. Because the guys were in Texas working, last week. But on Tuesday night, Mems and Chiquitita (Baby Jelly's godparents) had a little "celebration dinner."

Of course, the usual suspects were there. All of us, delicious Mexican food, a delish birthday cake and cupcakes, and tons of ninitos. It was so much fun!! Completely colorful. Which is totally Jose and Jelly's style. :) And I love it!!

One of the "treats" that they had, was this "Funfetti Dip." OK, let's back up a bit here. Months ago, I pinned a bunch of funfetti pins. They just sounded good at the time. Maybe because, I just wanted some cake. :) Now I'll be real here, I never went back to look at them. Ever!! But Chiquitita saw them.

I'm not 100% sure who made this dip. If it was Chiquitita or Jelly, but darn, it was delicious!! And it has me wondering, why in the heck, have I not looked into this? They told me, that it was a pin, that I had pinned. Now I want to go search out my boards again. :)

Oh, there was quite a bit of this yumminess. And I'm not even embarrassed to say it, but I ate 2 bowls!! With animal crackers, graham crackers, and some fruit. I might have skipped out on the delish tacos, just to eat this goodness. ;)

I got the recipe, and I'm 100% positive, I'm probably going to gain 20lbs in the next month!! I better only buy enough ingredients, to make this once. Because this can be a serious problem for me. Oh, and silently, I'm hoping that there's some more of this, at Baby Jelly's birthday party. :)

Tastes Like Fall :)

I've said this a million times, I'm not a cook. Not a good one anyways. I try. And try hard. But I think this is going to be a long process. But I'm trying. And if you've noticed lately, in my "Favorite Blog List," I've added a ton of cooking blogs. I need some help. And a little inspiration.

While searching through Cooking Classy, I noticed this simple little dip. And it sounded delish!! Did I mention, easy peasy. Yes, it's something that I could definitely handle. :) Now just look at how yummy this picture is!!

I've also mentioned a few hundred times, that we meet our "Mariachi Family," every Tuesday and Thursday. There are only a handful of us, that live here. In the "big city." Everyone else, lives about 45 minutes away. And our church, is actually about an hour from our home. But it's a nice little deal, that we have going on. Church, great friends, and a yummy dinner. :)

Mems always, and I mean ALWAYS, cooks dinner for us. And it's always so yummy! We leave with bellies full. And hearts overflowing. :) And while Mems does all the cooking, all the time, others bring treats too. Chiquitita is well known for her cupcakes. They are little bites of Heaven!! Oh my!!

I've decided to try and contribute something this week. I'm going to make a double batch of this pumpkin pie dip. For tomorrow. I might even make some on Wednesday. We're having a family dinner at my abuelitos' house. Yay, this is the first time, that I feel really confident about something I've made. Even if it's a simple recipe.
