Chili & Cheese Topped Baked Potato {with Sour Cream & Bacon}
Chili & Cheese Topped Baked Potato {with Sour Cream & Bacon}. I love this combination so much that I got up bright and early one morning with the sole intention of making a pot of chili…so that I could picture it on top of this Perfectly Baked Potato.

Warm 7-Layer Salad {or is it 8-Layers}
This Warm 7-Layer Salad is addicting and gorgeous. There’s so much going on here. Layers and layers of going on. Every bite is unique and delicious. All credit to Rachel Ray for this fabulous recipe. I must admit I was a bit skeptical the first time we made it, but once we took the first bite we were all in. That may have something to do with the wonderful bacon flavor infused throughout the layers.
