Recipe: Tammie’s Chicken Nacho Dip
At last week’s Birthday Break in Technical Services, there were many tasty dishes. One of the stand-outs was a delicious dip made by Tammie Busch, Digital Services. It was served with nacho chips and several people went back for seconds. She found the recipe online: Outrageous Warm Chicken Nacho Dip
Tammie’s notes:
— I used mild RO*TEL.
— I did not use the minced jalapenos.
— To make the chicken, I placed two large, frozen chicken breasts in a slow cooker with 2 cups of chicken broth and some garlic powder and cooked it on low for about 9 ½ hours. The chicken fell apart.
— I mixed the taco seasoning with the sour cream and placed it on top of the other ingredients.
Thank you for sharing this recipe with Muse readers, Tammie!

Web tip of the week, September 29, 2014: Curious
Instructors can upload video on any subject . Unlike YouTube, Curious lets teachers choose to charge for lessons. There are no creepy comments from anonymous YouTubers here, and the site’s proprietors approve teachers and eyeball content to ensure that these online classes are useful and of good quality. The lesson of the day (Sept. 29 2014) is how to check eggs for freshness.

Noël’s Blog
Noël Kopriva is our new Agriculture, Food, and Natural Resources Librarian. We’re very glad that she’s joined the Mizzou family! Unfortunately, around the same time that Noël was making exciting plans for her career, she also received devastating news – she had breast cancer. She began blogging about the experience. You can follow her journey here: Noël's blog. Blogs can be a great creative outlet – as well as an efficient way of sharing information with others and a way to cope with a stressful situation. Our thoughts are with Noël as she continues her treatment.
Do you blog? If so, we’d love to hear about it in the comments or via email.

Happy Anniversary!
This week, Technical Services celebrated two great milestones. Rebecca Schedler recently marked her 30th work anniversary and Sue Barnes her 25th. To celebrate, congratulate, and thank them for their years of service we had cake (of course) and other goodies. Thank you Rebecca and Sue for all you have done for MU Libraries!
