BLOGALICIOUS!

Our library system is host to two different cooking clubs, one cookbook-based, the other theme-based.  The cookbook-based club meets on the second Thursday of every month at 6:30 p.m. at the Fredericktown Community Library (1 Burgett Drive, Fredericktown, OH 43019).  The theme-based club meets at the main library in Mount Vernon (see our contact info) the first Tuesday of every month, also at 6:30.  September 1 is their next meeting date, and the theme is: BLOGALICIOUS!  Participants are invited to find a recipe from, oh, just any old blog, make it and bring it to the meeting to share.  (Other themes this year have included "Mom's Recipes,"Buon cibo, buoni amici, buoni tempi!" (Italian dishes)," and "Luau!") The regulars in this club are a fun-loving group.  They always have lots of really tasty things to pass around, and more often than not there are leftovers, some of which appear on my desk.  I am always happy to show my group spirit by eating them.

So, in case you're casting about the web in search of a recipe to try, here are three, courtesy of my office manager, Lisa:

Pepperoni Dip
1 package of pepperoni
1 8oz. cream cheese
1 12oz. sour cream
Garlic powder to taste (1/2 – 1 tsp)
Mix ingriedents in baking dish.  Bake in oven 275 degrees 45 minutes.  Stir occasionally.
Best served warm.  Can be stored in fridge till ready to serve.  Heat in microwave.  

Dried Beef Dip
1 8oz cream cheese
1 sm onion chopped
1 – 2 pkgs dried beef chopped
Garlic Powder to taste (1/4 – 1/2 tsp)
Mix together.  Let stand overnight. Serve with crackers.  

Scar Face
1 8oz cream cheese
1 jar of shrimp dip
Mini shrimp or crab meat
Smear cream cheese on platter.  Top with shrimp dip then shrimp or crab meat.  Serve cold with crackers.
