1. "Cafe Rio" dressing. (This ones for you Bri). This is one of those, a friend got it from a friend who got it while working there- not sure if its the ACTUAL recipe or not- but it sure tastes like it! Its good on salads, as a dip, over enchiladas, nachos- pretty much anything.

"Cafe Rio" Dressing

3-4 Tomatillos (mexican green tomatoes found in produce section)- quartered
1/2 c. buttermilk
1/2 c. mayo
1/2 c. sour cream
1 pkg. buttermilk ranch dressing mix
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
2 garlic cloves (or equivalent jarred minced garlic)
1 c. cilantro

Dump in blender and puree. Absolutely fabulous as a dip with chips, dressing on salad, over burritos, nachos, enchiladas etc.

2. Catching up with Bri and Dan. We finally got together! After a few years of keeping in touch via the internet it was great to get together with the Hoopes in person! Thanks for coming over. Best of wishes as you head back to Cali, find out about where you'll be for residency, and as baby arrival day approaches- you guys are awesome.

3. A few lookers. We're finally showing our home! Now that the holidays are over we're finally getting a few people looking at our house. We'll see what happens!
