Love, Melissa: A Self-Portrait
I'm joining Chelsey from The Paper Mama in this post and doing the oh-so-dreaded self-portrait!

To go along with all the deep-fried foods, we had french onion dip, soy sauce, salsa, nacho cheese dip, guacamole (my personal fave!), sour cream, and good old ketchup. We also had a meat and cheese "platter," and some Fritos, pistachios, and M&M's. Finally, we had my personal favorite of the en...
