Spicy Black Bean Dip

Laura loves this dip from Trader Joe's. It's got a good kick to it and has this kinda weird kimchi aftertaste. It's tasty. She eats it up even though she ends up drinking a gallon of milk with it because she has to take a sip after each bite.
Laura says: "It's spicy"

Then she helped me make an apple crisp.

I used this recipe but halved the amount of apples. I should have halved the amount of sugar for the apples but just decreased it by a quarter and it came out too sweet. However, it was still very tasty. The crust is yummy.

That's the way to make her drink her milk! Just have her eating spicy food all the time. Ha ha. Jimbo has a very good apple crisp recipe we make all the time. We started putting in wheat germ and flax seed in the crisp part and you can't even tell! So it's a little healthier than other crisps. Let me know if you want the recipe. That Pioneer Woman blog is awesome. I love her.

I have to stop baking. I already ate about 1/3 of this from last night and it took all my will not to eat the whole thing! I made it to use up some old apples I had. You know you can ALWAYS give me recipes.

Don't even get me started, she'll be eating hot chiles off the plant by the time she's 12!
