my own version of heaven

this weekend, i'm leaving for a vacation to kiawah island with MZ's family. all i can think about is how i am not going to be sticking to my diet. i don't believe diet & exercise goes with vacation. however, i do believe the word vacation goes with the word chip.

anyone who even slightly knows me, knows i have a love/love relationship with chips. ton (stepdad) jokes that i'm not a good person to share a bag of chips with because the other person will only get the crumbs. whenever someone tells me they had chips for lunch, i just have to ask, "well, what kind? did you have a dip to go with those?" i like to think it's genetic. peg loves a good chip and dip combo as well.

so i got to thinking - i should write a blog post on my favorite chip. this is no small task as i've never met a chip i didn't like. so i narrowed it down to my top 6 favorites because i could not even narrow it down to 5.

#1

miss vickie's jalapeno kettle cooked chips

#2
lay's sour cream and onion chips

#3

cool ranch doritos

#4

ruffles original potato chips with homemade french onion dip

#5

tostitos chips and queso dip (peg's #1)

#6

mini sourdough pretzels with hidden valley buttermilk ranch

if i had to guess sis's favorites, i would say it's a close tie between crunchy cheetos and bbq chips. am i right sis?
