Junior League had a membership open house over the weekend, so I volunteered to make this sassy sausage dip from our League cookbook.

We won
In case you spent this past weekend under a rock and not glued to your TV like me, Virginia Tech beat Ohio State in the Horseshoe. OSU was ranked 8th, and we were expected to be defeated soundly.
