Make way for Hummus!

Hummus is an appetizer made from chickpeas (GROSS!) or if you are familiar with the Ponderosa salad bar (That salad is MUSHROOMY!) - chickpeas.

Hummus sounds bad, heck is even...dun, dun, dun! ARABIC!

PPYSM loves hummus, and for that simple fact - along with the fact it is a staple for Al Queda (thanks Homeland Security for linking to my blog!) - it seems gross.

But, 4 friends that read my blog.  Hummus is good.  If you close your eyes, it tastes just like bean dip.  Who doesn't like bean dip?

My goal this week - get a good, simple recipe for 'Bean' dip that everyone will enjoy.

In true Alton Brown fashion (for you Desiree), I will get a cool, delicious 'Bean' dip recipe that even Kilzer could make.

Stay tuned!

Well, Robert Schimmel died yesterday.  Pretty sad.  He was super funny.  I always thought that if I ever went into stand up, I'd be like Robert Schimmel.  He had a tough life.  Divorced his first wife, got cancer twice, married his daughter's best friend, found out she was cheating on him, had a heart attack, needed a liver transplant, moved back in with his parents, his mom died, then he dies from his injuries from a car crash when his daughter was driving. 

Stupid women drivers.
