Red Velvet Cake Batter Dip | Red Velvet dip; This easy to make dip tastes just like red velvet cake batter! Ever since we got Netflix, I’m getting hooked on one series after another. Murder mysteries, mostly. I watch one series from beginning to end, then spend a few days wishing there were more episodes, then I start over with a new series. I was sort of devastated when I came to the end of “Dexter.” That one will be hard to replace. Lately, I’ve been watching old episodes of “Columbo.” It’s a terrible habit. I am the same way with food. I’m a little sick of chicken salad now. But my latest obsession is cake batter dip. Seeing as how February is right around the corner, I decided to try a red velvet version of this treat. The kids LOVE when I make this stuff.

Christmas break was long gone, and I was suffering extraordinary January teacher blues during what was already a rough year. I spent a lot of time reading food blogs, and one night while perusing my usual list, I whined, "I want to write a food blog. " "Well, write a food blog then. " Adam said, matter-of-factly.

Make Your Own Ice Cream in Five Minutes : Parentables - StumbleUpon. Photo Credit: Sarah Fernandez I have such fond memories of making homemade ice cream in the summer when we were kids. We used to go pick fresh strawberries and blackberries and then come home and pull out the electric machine and load in the ingredients.
