Today is Shopping Around the world with our pal Bacon from PigLove. This month's edition is being hosted by our pals Angel Sammy and Teddy from Two Spoiled Cats.
From Angel Sammy and Teddy's Blog:
Our recipe is a super easy peasy one that Dad has made for years. He calls it Spiegelhalter Dip.We invite you to join us on FRIDAY, AUGUST 31st for SHOPPING AROUND THE WORLD – right here on our blog – but you will still LINK to Bacon’s blog HERE. What is the theme for this month????SNACKS!
What does that mean? It means when you want a little something different than ripping open a bag of chips at night as you watch TV or even if people stop by unexpectedly and you need to make something yummy and QUICK – WHAT IS THAT?????? A special dip? A plate of gourmet cheeses? Whacked up fruit with some kind of sweet yogurt/honey sauce? Yep – watching TV with a bag of chips on your tummy is fine and dandy (and Mom and Dad do that too sometimes!) but then there’s other times when that just doesn’t “MAKE IT”……….so please share your recipe for a special snack you like OK? If you can show us a photo of it – GRAND…………but one thing we ask you ALL to do is tell us what this fabulous snack of yours COSTS to make? Tell us the recipe with ingredients and the cost of each thing. It’s a “SHOW AND TELL OF FOOD” !!! So I’ll see you Friday right???
