Getting old sux, but sometimes it's funny.

My wife asked me to hand her a packet of onion soup mix to make dip. I handed her a packet of Italian dressing mix instead. Neither of us noticed until we dipped our chips in. We had a good laugh over that. Well, at least our taste buds aren't gone...yet!

1 2 lemons sliced when i copied out the recipe. When I read my own writing I put 12 lemons in with the chicken. (I am also not an accomplished cook). I brought it for dinner at my Dad's nursing home. Nobody could touch the chicken. The lemon was so strong. We threw it all out. I had read 12 when it really said 1 - 2 lemons. I wasn't using my glasses all the time then. Now I have my glasses with me all the time.

My mom once tried to cut the grease in her chicken soup by adding grapefruit juice. Ugh, disgusting. I'm not a picky eater, but even I couldn't eat that!!

5. So, how were the chips with Italian dressing mix?

You may have discovered something great!

7. Pretty good!

We continued to eat them after we looked at each other, like,"WTF?" Different but good.

Today, I am making us a crudite platter with salmon dip, the dip we made from Italian dressing and a white cheddar and bacon dip I bought. Celery sticks, carrot sticks, bell pepper sticks and crackers. Oh, and a cheese ball I bought. No cooking, just chopping and stirring.

Unfortunately, I don't have any sour cream or chips.
