This is for Boo

So today Boo kindly brought to my attention that I haven't updated my blog in a while now. It is not because I haven't been cooking, though I have been lazy and cooking a little less, I have not been posting anything I have made. So here's another update of what has been going on in my kitchen...

Kyle's 21st Birthday was August 26th so I made him a chocolate Oriole's cake to go along with the Oriole's tickets I got him as a gift. I can't share the recipe for the cake though because it is a family secret. Maybe one day you will be lucky enough to taste it if you haven't already :)


For Kyle's birthday he was given a bushel of crabs. Some we ate with friends, the left overs we cleaned and made crab dip with. Had I known the dip would be so good I would have taken a picture before I ate some of it :) I don't remember exactly how I made it but here is what I think I did.





Crab Dip Ingredients

2 8oz packages of cream cheese
16oz of crab meat
1/2 cup Mayonnaise
2tsp mustard
1 T Old Bay
A couple of drops of Hot sauce (I like Frank's)
1/2 cup Shredded Cheddar cheese
2 T lemon juice
Paprika

Mix all the ingredients together except for the paprika. Transfer mixture into a 9X9inch pan and sprinkle the top with the paprika. Bake in the oven at 350 degrees for 15-20minutes.
