all i really want







What a wonderful weekend we had visiting with Jonathan's Aunt and Uncle in from California. They gave us the most beautiful pair of crystal candlesticks - I love them!

For everyone that asked for the spinach artichoke dip I made here it is:
2 cups of shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese, divided
1/2 cup of sour cream
1/4 cup of grated fresh Parmesan cheese, divided
3 garlic cloves, crushed
14 oz jar or artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
2 8oz blocks of cream cheese, softened
1/2 package of frozen chopped spinach, thawed, drained and squeezed dry
Tortilla chips or crackers or french bread sliced

Preheat oven to 350. Combine 1-1/5 cups of mozzarella cheese, sour cream, 2 tablespoons Parmesan and next five ingredients in a large bowl and stir until well-blended (I use my KitchenAid mixer and it works flawlessly on speed 2 for a couple of minutes). Spoon mixture into a 1-1/2 quart baking dish. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake for 30 minutes or until bubbly and golden brown. Serve with tortilla chips or crackers or french bread sliced.
