Things that Make Us Happy

We always love running into ferm LIVING on chic design blogs like this one!

Even more, we LOVE running into ferm LIVING in chic apartments, like this one in Chicago (c/o our friend and former colleague, Grace - thank you, Grace!)

We also love... spinach dip! Okay, this is in no way chic (especially when you're stuffing your face with it at home alone), but it's just been on my mind A LOT lately. Scoop it up with Tostitos Hint of Lime chips - is there anything better? This one's from Real Simple. The recipe does, indeed, look pretty simple, but you know what's an even quicker fix? Picking a tub up at the grocery store. Happiness!

Thanks for mentioning Tostitos Hint of Lime chips! Did you know that we (Frito-Lay) also make a spinach dip of our own? Check it out: http://www.fritolay.com/our-snacks/tostitos-creamy-spinach-dip.html. Thanks again for the mention. - Kristin, Frito-Lay Employee

Sorry Kristin, but I have to disagree. Tostitos may be corn flavored and they may be chip shaped, but they are NOT corn chips. I would recommend Mission chips, or any other chip you can find that's a bit more firm and less sweet. And if you really want to go overboard, cut up some tortillas and fry or bake your own. It's faster than you'd think.

I once considered the Tostito to be a decent corn chip. Then I moved out west. Now there's no going back.

And if you're eating salsa you found in the chip aisle, well... Go check the produce section. There's better stuff out there.

Also, YEAH! Spinach dip!
