y'all i finally did it. the church potluck recipe for the seven layer dip from the deacon's wife actually worked. it's going to be a regular thing now, i think. i bought the sour cream at Kroger for $3.49.

oh my god, the deacon's wife seven layer dip is LEGENDARY. i always wondered how she got hers so good. glad it worked for you! mine always gets a lil watery but i’ll try Kroger sour cream next time.

oh no, watery dip is the worst! i usually drain the olives really well; that seems to help mine stay thick. glad the recipe worked for you though! i'm totally making it next week.

i always drain the olives too! it's a game changer for dip consistency. hope yours turns out perfectly thick.

oh yes, draining the olives is key! makes all the difference for that perfect thick texture. i found that out the hard way once. glad you got it right!

haha the hard way is the best way to remember recipe details, right? i usually just dump everything into the bowl but i will definitely start draining them next time. thanks for the tip!

honestly, the drain is a lifesaver. i bet youve never smelled a salad that just tasted like sitting in a puddle of broth. trust me, your fingers will thank you in ten minutes.

omg @sweetsunset, sitting in a puddle of broth! lol. i always try to drain my pasta salad extra well so it doesnt get watery like that. my lolo always says dry is dry, wet is worse.

my tita used to shake the colander over the sink for like two minutes straight. she said if a drop lands on the counter it is a sin. lol. you are right that wet is worse. i now use paper towels on the table just to be safe.
