** Broken Arrow offers a quick turnaround time on your custom team wear order! **
At our zoo trip recently, my sister and I had decided to save a bit of money by bringing our own lunches since that is allowed at the Omaha zoo. We ended up getting a later start then we had intended so by the time we got there it was just about lunch time so we headed straight for the picnic area to start eating. What we had not realized is that the picnic area is located in an area where peacocks and prairie dogs roam free. As soon as we cracked open our coolers we were surrounded by peacocks, male and female, just waiting for us to drop some food. I also noticed a prairie dog inching its way toward us as well, looking for crumbs. I must say it was probably the oddest outdoor lunch I’ve ever had. I got some nice photos of the peacocks and the prairie dog, but I don’t think our kids appreciated the uniqueness of eating amongst wild animals. I think they would have preferred to be indoors, without beady little eyes staring them down as they chewed! My son was particularly bothered by it all, so I think I may get him a customized sweatshirt that says, “I survived the Peacock stare!”

I made the most awesome discovery this year at our family reunion. My sister-in-law brought a dish that absolutely blew my socks off! It was soooo good, and it turns out is one of the easiest things in the world to make. This wonderful concoction is called…….
Wait for it…….
BLT Dip. Yep. BLT Dip. And that’s exactly what it is, a BLT in a dip. Whodathunkit? You just take lettuce, diced tomatoes, crumbled bacon, and mayo and mix it all together until it is a somewhat thick but not too dry or too runny in consistency. Spread it on toast, spread it on a flour tortilla for a BLT wrap, or my favorite, use Wheat Thins crackers to dip with. It makes a meal all in itself, it couldn’t be easier, and it’s a crowd favorite! Well, in my house it’s mostly a crowd favorite. Sort of a crowd favorite. Okay, it’s basically just my ten year old daughter and myself that LOVE it. But that’s only because I have some VERY picky eaters that live here! You wouldn’t believe the good stuff those yahoos are missing out on! They need personalized sweatshirts that say, “Picky Eaters Anonymous” is what I’m thinking.
