Well this post is coming kind of late to wish you all a Happy Holiday, but I am going to do it anyway. HAPPY HOLIDAYS.

This year I bought myself a new digital video camera with a DVD as the recording media. I figured it would be easier to just pop the DVD in and edit the video.

Sounds good in theory, but I think I chose the wrong video format when I formatted the dvd. As a result instead of getting one big video to edit, I got a bunch of small clips. At least that’s the way my video editing software imported it.

As a result the audio track is off and the transitions between the clips are not smooth. Sorry about that, I promise to do better next time.

Getting to the cooking, this is a cooking site right?

I chose to show you two of my staple dips that I put out at most gatherings. Hummus and Salsa.

Though they don’t really complement each other, I find that they both disappear quite rapidly, so I guess people like them and I always put out a good variety of other appetizers. Usually too many. (Sound Familiar) You end up with lots of main course leftovers because everyones full from the appetizers. “Don’t fill up on the Bread” remember your mom telling you at the restaurant ? LOL

Both these dishes should be made the night before so they will be ready the next day when your guests arrive and then you can spend more time with them.
