Another roll of the dice.....

These were the good 'ol days....

We moved to Frisco 14 years ago into Preston Vineyards, our first house holds such great memories and was the start of some fabulous friendships. Just about every afternoon with our wee-little ones would meet out in the cul-de-sac and let them play while we had some 'grown-up' talk. Most of us had one little one but soon it began to grow. Being in the crazy 'new mom' world we always look forward to getting together the first Tuesday of EVERY month and play Bunko. This is when we would actually 'play' the game but was just as much fun going to each others houses for some great food and maybe walk out with a prize.

We still try to get together for dinner but our meetings are few and far between and never seem to have everyone there. Allison is the only one that has moved away so while she was in town Julie organized a old fashion game of Bunko (we actually played) and much needed catching up. Our original group was all back together one more time.

I know she will love me for posting this awesome picture of her....sorry Allison had to do it!

These ladies hold such a special place in my heart. Thanks for a great night of food, drinks and many laughs!

Also, here is the recipe for the appetizer that I brought.....

Pepperoni Pizza Dip
1 8oz pkg cream cheese
1/2c sour cream
1t dried oregano, crushed
1/8t garlic powder
1/8t crushed red pepper
1/2c pizza sauce
1/2c chopped pepperoni
1/4c sliced green onion
1/4c chopped green pepper
1/2c shredded mozzarella cheese (2oz)

In a small bowl, beat together cream cheese, sour cream, oregano, garlic powder, and red pepper. Spread evenly in a 9 or 10 inch pie plate. Spread pizza sauce over the top. Sprinkle with pepperoni, green onion, and green pepper. Bake 350* for 10min. Top with cheese and bake 5 more minutes or until cheese is melted and mixture is heated through.

***I cheat just a little bit....I put everything into a small crock pot and let it melt and cook slowly.
