~ 1 loaf French bread


~warm refrigerated cream cheese in microwave for one minute, in medium mixing bowl
~finely chop artichoke hearts and add to softened cream cheese
~add all other ingredients and mix well with mixer (explain when son asks what mixer is)
~pour into hollowed out bread bowl and replace "cover"

Is this the recipe for the bowl of goodness that you made for Jack's b-day party?

If it is... I can attest; the stuff is like crack :)
