Bacon and Herb Corn Dip
I don’t know what day of the quarantine were on, but I am definitely feeling more thankful for a slower pace, even though I didn’t see it coming. I told Will yesterday I have mixed emotions, because it has been so nice to slow down, but also scary not knowing anything about the future. Like I mentioned last week, I have been filling my time with fun projects, florals and time in the kitchen. My potted herbs are thriving, so I made a yummy dip last night with things I had on hand. If you have the supplies, I highly recommend diving into this delicious dip on your next sunny day outside. Enjoy!
