Life is a Special Occasion!
Hallmark
Friday, November 6th is National Nachos Day. In their simplest form, nachos are tortilla chips covered in nacho cheese or other melted cheese and served with salsa.
Nachos with the works are often called loaded or super. As a snack among fellow diners or a hearty meal for one, this dish comprises nachos topped with meat and refried beans, covered in shredded cheese. Once the cheese is melted, cold toppings such as shredded lettuce, tomatoes, salsa, onion, and jalapeno are piled on top. Other possible toppings are limited only by your imagination but might typically include cilantro, chicken, bacon, guacamole, lime, olives, and sour cream.

THOUGHT FOR TODAY
We can make this thing into a Party, instead of a Memory.
Will Rogers
I do love Nachos and for me they make a meal. I found this easy Nacho Dip recipe and will making it soon.
PARTY NACHO CHEESE DIP
1 lg. box Velveeta
1/4 c. milk
1 lb. hamburger
1 sm. chopped onion
1 sm. chopped green pepper
1 lg. jar Mexican salsa
Brown hamburger with onion and pepper. Melt cheese with milk over double boiler. When all melted, add drained hamburger mixture and salsa. mix well. Place in crockpot on low. If too thick, add 1/4 cup milk and blend.
If you want to cut down on greasy food but aren’t ready to give up nachos, just make some adjustments. For a more diet friendly snack, try baked tortilla chips, ground chicken, a small amount of cheese, and lots of vegetables.
It would be a great thing to have when company calls and with the holidays just around the corner I’m going to make sure I have all the ingredients on hand.
In order to celebrate today, I’m showing pictures of my sombrero, my party hat from one of my birthdays. Today is not my birthday, that comes round in March every year. Still and all it’s a good day to celebrate! Have a party !
I hope you all have a FANTASTIC Friday!
COUNTING MY GIFTS
The grace of God means something like: Here is your life. You might never have been, but you are because the party wouldn't have been complete without you.
Frederick Buechner
Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
3286. for nachos and cheese, a meal for me
3287. for party foods, they mean company is coming
3288. for easy recipes, I don’t like anything that is too complicated
Enter into His courts with thanksgiving — and in His presence is fullness of Joy!
48 Days Until Christmas
We are just a little over halfway through our journey to Christmas! Remember those in your community who may be partaking of the generosity of friends and neighbors through the use of the local food bank. Take out the grocery list you started for your Thanksgiving meal planning and add a note or list some nonperishable items that can easily be purchased along with your own Thanksgiving ingredients.
PRAYER FOR OUR TROOPS
Please pray for God's protection of
our troops and HIS wisdom for their
commanders.
Almighty and eternal God,
Protect our military
as they discharge their duties
with the shield of your strength,
may the power of your love
enable them to return home in safety
that with all who love them
they may ever praise you for your loving care.
AND bless our Police Officers, Firefighters
and Paramedics and EMT’s
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen
GOD BLESS YOU ALL !
ADVICE FOR TODAY
Someone said that life is a party. You join in after it's started and leave before it's finished.
