Chips And Dip: A Love Story

Ah, l'amour. Is there anything more inspiring than summer love? We think not, so we're penning this ode to our favorite couple around, with no chance of drama or breaking up to impede upon our warm-weather festivities. It's chips and dip. They're the life of every party. They say the way to a man's heart is through his stomach, and this is no exception.

So instead of putting a dent in that bag of chips of indeterminate age or cracking open yet another jar of sub-par goop, we nominate this couple, who has never annoyed anyone (unlike your buddy and his girl) for snack of the summer. Just picture the look on your host's face when you show up with the chips and dip you were asked to bring along...only they're all homemade. Are you the hero of the party? Yes you are. Did you spread the love between chips and dip to all your friends? Yes you did. Now hit the kitchen!
