How ’bout you, do you think it’s gone by fast?
We’ve been busy the last week with getting the girls organized here at home, work…
AND we have a new family addition.
Yes, his name is Keiser and he is a 9 week old Golden Retriever. He is absolutely one of the cutest things I’ve ever seen. And the best part?
He gets along famously with our almost 9 year old Golden, Brady.
They are spitting images of each other and love, love LOVE to play tug of war with Brady’s rope toy.
Who needs TV when you can just watch the dogs play together?!

I have always been a big fan of taco dip. That looks delicious.
Keiser is so cute. And this dip? Delish!
oh, the new addition to the family is too cute! and a great choice for SRC 🙂
What an adorable puppy! Love the dip also!
Omigoodness Keiser is such a cutie! I could talk about my puppy all day, too. Is it sad that when I leave for work in the morning I miss him? I truly can’t imagine what it’ll be like to leave a 2-legged baby when that time comes.
Anyway, I’m so glad you enjoyed this taco dip…4 rolling pins…woo hoo! I’m usually anti-olive as well but since I had some on-hand at the time (not sure why!) I must have thrown them on when I made the recipe. You really can’t argue with gooey melted deliciousness and I totally won’t judge if you serve it up for dinner because I did, too! 🙂
Cute doggy…And a taco dip that is a must-have not only in sport games but in several other occasions. I love all those layers of yumness!!!
I could eat this for a meal! Big time yummy! And I LOVE your new baby!!! xo
What a delicious layer dip or even a quick meal to throw together!
That looks like one great dip, and one cute puppy! I was assigned you this month, and I pinned so many recipes! You have a great selection!
This dip looks incredible! And, your dog is positively adorable!
The taco dip looks wonderful. But, it’s Keiser who steals the show. What a cutie! And, I love the photo of his nose 🙂
Number 1: the dog may be one of the most adorable things I have ever seen 🙂
Number 2: I love a good taco dip, and yours looks amazing!
Nothing beats a good taco dip 🙂 And a super cute puppy!
First – your doggie is so cute! As for the dip – just wish I had it right now. Glad to be part of SRC group C with you!
I am pinning this dip! LOVE it!
What a great dip! I am looking for appetizers for a grad party, and this sounds perfect!
Yum! This dip looks awesome!
I LOVE jalapeno’s…thank’s for giving me a fresh idea on how to use them x
Try substituting Chorizo sausage instead of hamburger.
Ooh, Kathy, that sounds great! Will have to try that next time, thanks for the tip!
Do you have a print button. Did not see
Pete,
for most of my recipes there is a Print button, but not for all. I’m going through and updating recipes so that they all have one, but it’s a tedious task. If you find one that is without it, you can go to this website, http://www.printfriendly.com/, paste the url of the recipe you want to print and do it that way. Thanks!
nice post thanks
This is delicious! I will prepare this evening for my partner. Thank you very much

I was searching for the yummy recipes on the Internet, and luckily found this post where you have shared such a nice post. Thanks for the sharing your precious post.
This looks so good! I remember trying something similar once at a book club potluck and I wish I had asked the person for the recipe. Definitely going to give this one a try. Love taco dip with chips.
Thank you, Sarah! I hope that this is close to the one the one that you loved so much. There’s just something pretty awesome about taco dips and chips, isn’t there?
Wow this Dip was sooo delicious. Thanks so much for this recipe. I usually like to put Ketchup on my Tacos, Quesadilla’s and tortilla dip…. but this was so good that I didn’t want to put Ketchup on it at all!
Its a shame that I couldn’t give this 10 stars!!!!!!!!!!
Anyone else a little freaked out about baking the sour cream?!?!
