Party Tip of the Week

When planning to entertain, before looking at other venues, call a tent company to come in and give you a price on entertaining at home. It can be expensive, but it's worth it in the long run. Summer nights are fabulous and a tent just adds to the festivities. By the way, tents can be heated and air conditioned.

Party Dip of the Week

REFRIED BEAN DIP

• 1 C. refried beans
• 1/2 C. salsa
• 6 bacon strips
• 1/2 C. chopped onions
• 1/2 C. sour cream
• 1/2 C. shredded cheese
• 1 Tbsp. chili powder
• 1/4 tsp. salt

Fry and crumble bacon. Saute onion in bacon grease until translucent. Mix all remaining ingredients with onion and desired amount of bacon grease.

Serve warm or cold with tortilla chips.

Party Joke of the Week

A pig walked into a bar and asked, "Do you serve root beer?"

The bartender said he did.

"I'd like one, please," the pig said.

After the pig had finished, he asked to use the rest room.

After the pig left, another pig came in and asked for two root beers. This pig then asked for the rest room just like the first one had. Two more pigs came in. One ordered three root beers and the other four. They too used the rest room.

When a fifth pig came in, the bartender thought he'd get cute. "Let me guess, you want five root beers."

The pig was shocked. "Why, yes. Yes, I would."

When he was done, he started to walk out. The bartender was confused. "Don't you want to use the rest room like the other four pigs did?"

"No, I'm the fifth little piggy. I go wee-wee-wee all the way home."
