Hi, Everyone...
Hope your weekend was a good one.
We had another OPEN HOUSE and had 2 really good prospects.
They both are to get back with us after talking to their bankers.
After this next weekend OPEN HOUSE,
since we haven't had as much traffic as we'd like,
we will list with a realtor.
I made the BEST
Warm Bean Dip
for our fellowship gathering on Sunday.
I can not, for the life of me, remember where I got the recipe. I THOUGHT I got it off PINTREST but I can't find it now.
Mr. Sweet had to mix it all together for me because of my WOUND...
I've had a lot of blood blisters in my time, but THIS one was the Granddaddy of them all...
and, boy, it is soooo sore.
Everyone really liked this..
and I'll be making it again SOON.

Wow! Does that ever sound good! I am so sorry that you have that awful blood blister. They are miserable-I've had a few of them myself- xo Diana
The bean dip and fruit salad look yummy. That blood blister does look sore, I've never see one that big or in a round circle.
Yummy bean dip and even yummier fruit salad. I LOVE real whipped cream! Hope your blood blister heals quickly - it looks nasty.
Thanks for the recipes. It's nice to get ones that are tried and true.
Good Lord BJ! How on earth did you get a blood blister that big!? I have seriously never seen anything like it. Poor dear!
Good thing yu have sweet Mr. Sweet to do your stirring for you!
Your sunshine-y yellow striped background and that little bee in the header are so bright and pretty. Isn't real-whipped-into peaks whipped cream one the best tasting things in the world? Your fruit salad reminds me of the way my mom used to make it. She always made it for dessert after Easter dinner.
Ouchie! That blood blister looks painful!your dip and fruit salad look delicious!
I'm hopig one of those house lookers will become a buyer, bj!
My fingers are crossed for you on the prospective buyers! You'd better give that hand a good rest and get rid of that awful blister.
Sounds like the kind of dip I love BJ! I'm sure they ate it up fast:@)
looks delicious.
love the new blog design. so springy. have a great week. ( :
bean dip and fruit salad ... all the major food groups covered ... YUM!!!!!!! Good luck on the sale of your home. take care of that hand.
I have a similar recipe that I use for the bean dip... we love it too:) Your dessert looks SO yummy! Hope the sale of the home comes soon so you can move to the new place:) Have a blessed week dear BJ, HUGS!
Wonderful news on the house selling front. It would be super-great if one of these prospects, turn out to be THE buyer. :-)
Oh my Dear, how ever did you get such a huge blood blister??????????? Ouch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hugs....
You poor thing. How in the world did you get that blood blister?
I love your bits of blue; thanks for sharing.
Happy Blue Monday, BJ!
(Now, remember to link in!)
Owie! That has got to hurt. Yikes!
I said a prayer about your home ale. Hopefully one of those prospects will take it.
I love fruit salad.
Your blood blister looks terrible. I bet you got it from all the painting. The food looks good as usual. Have a blessed day. Madeline
Bj, The bean dip looks great. I always look forward to your desserts. I hope that blister doesn't stay too long. That does look like it really hurts. Ouch!
Oh, yum! This sounds so good, BJ! I'm petty sure I've made this recipe before, but it's been a good long time.
I remember so well those days of the "Open House!" I can't remember now how many there were, but I even made a huge pot of chili for our realtor to serve to potential "lookers" and to other agents to help get the ball rolling. This was just slightly over two years ago. We put our home on the market in late January '11 & sold it in mid-June. What's really funny is that the first couple who looked at it, ended up being the ones who bought it. I later found out from our realtor that the wife had fallen in love with it, but her hubby insisted that they look at EVERY other condo or townhouse that was available. The same couple came back for four different visits! You just never know who your buyer is going to be. I'm keeping positive thoughts for you, BJ. I hope it happens very soon for you!

I seriously have to make this ASAP!!! My mouth is watering. Thanks for sharing this over at Moonshine Monday! Have a wonderful week!
Hi bj, Yes our 50th is April 20th. My gosh as if we don't have enough in common, our anniversaries are in the same month. We took our Christmas cruise to celebrate but we are also having a party. Less than two weeks now. It is very exciting and I will share it all soon. I had a post about it last week on Tuesday I think. The posts start running together after this long. Smile.
Your recipe looks delish but you know I am always ready for dessert. This fruit salad is dessert to me. I loved your animal post too. Cute cupcake liners. I made cupcakes on Sat. for a bake sale. The liners were a big hit. I will hate it when I run out. I have a ways to go. HA! Thanks to you!!!
Wishing you the best of luck selling your darling home. Have you moved into your new home yet?
Love, Jeanne
This sounds really good! I like anything "fire roasted." :) I agree on the no bananas. I'm not a fan. Thanks for the recipe. I'm sure my hubby would love it too.
You are something else! Even with a bad blister, you still are doing and cooking. I doubt you have ever prepared anything that did not turn out perfectly. In time, things will work out for the best.
BJ, sorry your hand is hurting. Looks like that fruit salad with all that fluffy whipped cream is just the thing to make it feel better. '-)
How in the world did you do that? Oh my! That does look sore.,
Okay, getting back to the food. You have a way of making me very hungry and you even have sent me to the store a few times!
Yay for two good prospects! Hope that one of them flies!
Delish and yummy looking ~ great post ^_^
thanks for visit and comments .
BJ,
What on Earth did you do to your poor, poor hand, dear friend??? Makes me want to cry just looking at it!!!
Your did sounds amazing, dear friend!!! My MoMa made an easy fruit salad using Del Monte Fruit Cocktail drained and then the home whipped heavy cream with sugar and vanilla!!! I agree, MoMa's recipes are the BEST!!!
Good luck with the $ale of your home!!!
Fondly,
Pat
Wow this post really makes my mouth water. Hope you have a great week BJ!
Bj- OH MY GOSH. I made that dip for supper tonight. Holy COW, it was AWESOME!!!! Thanks again for sharing!!! I added HOT picante sauce to it as well. Oh my Lordie, it was goooooood. :)
That sounds like a great bean dip! Good luck on selling your house!
hugs,
linda
Good Morning bj, Thank you so much for stopping by my blog and taking the time to comment, it was very kind of you.
Oh you poor thing, that blister looks so very sore. I do hope it clears up very quickly.
Cream which has been hand beaten is fabulous.
Try it with scones, jam and topped with cream....delicious.
I have enjoyed reading your blog and have become a new follower.
Sending best wishes from England.
Have a lovely day.

hi bj, So hope you get a contract from one of the two prospects! What a relief it will be to sell! Oh what a great easy recipe, perfect for gathering a group around the kitchen island. Desert yes it looks delicious too.
Take care of that hand.

Ouch! Take care of that blister. Love the new colors of your blog. Very Springy - LOL
I just finished dinner and now I am hungry again. Those dishes look so good. I am pinning the bean dip and the crock pot pecan pie. I tried to pin from a friend's Facebook page but FB won't let you pin from FB! Phooh!
