But, really, my kids have been begging me to get one of those plastic pools from the store and fill it up for them.
Sadly, the answer has been no.
I did have to laugh at the thought of two almost teenage (cringe) kiddos in a tiny plastic pool!

Pretty sure they weren’t thrilled with my dip instead of pool offering.
I personally think it’s a perfectly fair compromise.
This dip is so delicious….just give me a spoon and let me dive in, please.
It’s not overly sweet which I like. Key lime things are supposed to have a prominent tang in my book.
Best part about this dip? 10 minutes or less to put together. Boom. Snack time.
It makes a decent amount too, and no matter how badly you want to eat the entire bowl of silky goodness, you should probably share. Because, it’s gonna be your favorite dip to take to all of your summer cookouts and parties this year.
