A birthday party

The birthday girl!

My great aunt and grandma

First off, I would like to send each of you a hug and a thank you for your tremendously wonderful response to our pictures! Whew...my arms are tired. Seriously guys, you are amazing and you give me the warm fuzzies each and every day. We loved them too.

Last night we went to my great aunt's birthday party, which was delicious. And warm. For realz, we had pizza {I filled that quota for the week}, hot pimento cheese dip, chips and dip, fruit and fruit dip {which I will be sharing the recipe for below, I know, right? WHOA! A recipe. Promise its so easy a caveman could do it. Where have I heard that before?}, brownies, and one of my personal faves, strawberry cake and ice cream. Ok, it makes me want some just thinking about it. And the weather, although a bit humid was super warm and nice compared to this nasty cold stuff we had this week. I love birthday parties!

Ok, so a recipe...I am soooo Betty Crocker. This goes awesomely on fruit of all kinds, or shortbread cookies, or your big finger. It's whatever.

1) Cut up your fruit.

2) Use a hand mixer to blend one block of cream cheese with one jar of marshmallow cream.

3) You could totally add a little red food coloring if you want to make it pretty in pink. I figured we have enough red dye in our lives.

4) Dip fruit in and repeat.

OMGeez guys...this stuff will change your life. Seriously, why do we only make it for parties?

And here is a really crummy picture. I promise it was really pretty before we devoured it. I was just too busy stuffing my face to pick up the camera.

Happy happy Saturday!

Love,

Ramsey

P.S. because this post just wasn't long enough already. She has gorgeous succulents. And she and my grandma are hooking me up with my very own succulent garden. I may just be a bit obsessed with these little darlings. Probably because they can stand up to my gardening thumb of death.
