@spk112@ChefRamsay I have a slight obsession with Star Wars. Our engagement party had a Halloween theme just so I could dress as Darth Vader and we may or may not have had a lightsabar duel in our engagement photos...
My confession is that i absolutely hate cheesecake.
**stuck in a box**
I debated whether I should love tit this or not. I'm a huge SW nerd but I love cheesecake. Hard choice there.

@hartmich and @SaphireSweetie88 Can I join the New Girl buddy club? I just started it a few weeks ago and already watched all 5 seasons on Netflix. I love it!
@berg I am with you on The Walking Dead. DH and I watched the first few seasons and then just couldn't deal with it anymore. None of the characters are likable IMHO.
I guess maybe my FFFC could be that I love GoT and football (college only). But I will also say that I do not see the obsession with The Bachelor/Bachelorette/Bachelor in Paradise and whatever other spin offs there are. It is nothing but a bunch of bitchy women fighting over some guy that they don't even know. I could just never get into it.
Edit: I just had chips and queso at lunch and I most definitely hate myself LOL
You guys know queso literally means cheese, right?
THIS
And, that Velveeta is NOT cheese lol.
Oh I know. Still delicious

My confession: I don't like Lady Gaga and I'm super bummed she will be performing at the Super Bowl. I want to like her but I just don't. I actually change the station whenever her songs come on because her voice just gets to me.
I don't have a confession today, but please share the recipe for homemade queso, @eggplantface and @peachyteachy! I always need more queso in my life!
Oh mine is the simple one: 16 oz package of Velveeta cut in small cubes, 1 can of Rotel tomatoes and chiles, mix in crock pot, wait for it to melt, pour directly into your mouth. I may also try adding a can of refried beans, I saw someone suggest that, sounds delicious. You can also put the cheese and Rotel in a large pan on the stove if you don't have a crock pot. It melts faster that way anyway.
Oh I totally make this all the time, I just have always called it rotel dip, so I guess I wasn't thinking of it as queso! I'll just say it was Friday and quarter-end, so I wasn't thinking straight!

Well, now I have to make queso dip...it's been too long and I think I bought Tostitos brand last time, which isn't the same! But I probably won't use velveeta lol
In the same vein, tho, my FFFC is that I made bacon wrapped jalapeño poppers last night and I burned my finger scraping up some cheese after I took them out of the oven, and then my tongue when I shoved said cheese in my mouth And I'm not even sorry or ashamed!
@eggplantface I may have had it? Usually we have a baked layer dip with cream cheese/sour cream/taco seasoning mix topped with salsa and cheddar cheese. It is delicious, but not exactly what you're talking about...
@cheframsay I did not! I'm Canadian living overseas, so I know varying amounts of English, French, Arabic, and Swedish. My experience with Spanish is limited to counting to 10!

I make it very similar to this recipe but I sub potato starch for corn starch and play around with spices to make a mix on the side before I add it to the cheese. Then, at the end, I add salsa.
@PeachyTeachy I think you just made my life! That looks soooo good! I showed H, and he got super excited, too, so I think that will be on the menu this week! Thanks!
