The Dyson blog: Fostering humility and focusing on people and purpose in collaborative design processes

🙂 In the last few weeks we’ve had the opportunity to style and shoot beautiful kitchen renovations, newly-built dream homes, play dough kits for a growing messy play for kids empire, raw fish fillets for the world’s largest fresh-water fishery, a local flower farmer’s field in peak season, and the list goes on.

I love recipes like this where I usually have everything I need already in the house.How to Make the Jalapeño Popper Dip.This is really deceptively simple, but it definitely gives off the impression that you spent more than five minutes on it.

Perfect for last minute gatherings or unexpected guests.. You’ll need to chop your jalapeños up really small, then slice some green onions as well.If you use the sliced, pickled jalapeños, your life will be a little easier because half the work will already be done for you.

If you’re a purist and you want to use the fresh, it will just take you a few extra minutes to chop your peppers.

Discard the seeds if you don’t want too much spice.. Next, you’ll mix most of the ingredients together in a medium bowl, transfer that mixture to an appropriate baking dish, then top it with the shredded cheese.So far, just having the intention that this time of day should be a good one is helping.

I also make a point to make myself a really great fancy iced coffee and make sure to have lots of fun snacks to put into the lunch pails so that the whole process feels easy and I feel like I’ve done a good job of making something the kids will be excited to eat.Bonus points for me if I have something home-baked to add in.

I’m pretty sure I’ll get bored again with the whole thing at some point in the coming months, so I’ll have to keep my eye open for new ideas to keep making this time of day fun.I’ve really embraced “mini-projects” over the last year as we’ve had no time for real renovations..
