Received some AWESOME mail today, which can only be understood if you have ever dragged one of these amazing pens across a piece of paper, or canvas, or just about anything. THEY ARE THE CRACK OF THE PEN WORLD. Some people have drug dealers, I have a pen dealer... And she took care of me BIG time. JENN, MY HEART IS FOREVER YOURS.
(These pens are so amazing that opening each package is painful.)
So listen. Anyone who has spent any amount of time with me in person has surely seen me slather my pizza in this dressing. To the point where pizza is just completely unenjoyable to me now without this dressing. Hidden Valley Ranch Cracked Peppercorn Dressing, to be exact. Well it would appear that EVERY GROCERY STORE WITHIN MY GENERAL VACINITY is no longer carrying this product.
(gasp.)
This is me, crying out to the world for help. You find me some dressing. You mail me some dressing. I pay you. You get my undying devotion for eternity. We all get to enjoy pizza again.
It's a win-win really.
This photo is just the perfect balance between mildly amusing and mildly disturbing.
It needed to be shared.
That's all for today.


So what I have to know (because it's not like I carry a picture around in my purse lol) is what the bottle reads under the Peppercorn (does it list a few other ingredients?).. because chic, I think I found you your crack! Well, the crack of salad dressing that is lol. I thought to look for it while shopping at Market Basket in Claremont NH the other day and they carry the HV Peppercorn Ranch for $2.99 a bottle (but as said, there is a list of like 2 or 3 ingredients under the peppercorn, like garlic and something else. Just wanting to make sure they didn't go ahead and change the whole dang recipe on you.. you know, these companies have been known to do that, too!). Let me know if I can help. If you've already resolved your *issue*, that's cool too ;)

I like Ranch on/with alot of my foods too, including pizza. ;) I haven't tried the peppercorn flavor though. Is there a big difference? Did you know they make Peppercorn Ranch Sun Chips? http://www.fritolay.com/our-snacks/sunchips-peppercorn-ranch.html

It's much like I would feel if they stopped selling Ken's Italian dressing.. as I love to dip my chicken breast in it and mildly coat my garden salad with it. We have a discount food warehouse here in town and they end up with lots of discontinued items (not necessarily damaged or out of date items).. so I will keep my eyes peeled for said dressing! Now.. must find and sample one of the above mentioned pens! Your kitty to the right looks so much like our Camper.. I think I've mentioned that before (she was a rescue.. we found her abandoned in the woods at camp.. the day we *sold* our camper and left the campground for good.. call it fate :)
