I'm concluding that you'd like to learn a better way to search google for
this, rather than just having me give you a link to the thread in question
so I'm going to tell you how I found it and let you find the link yourself.


I went to google, then went into groups, then went into advanced groups
search. In the field: Find messages: with all of the words I entered
favorite dip recipe (no quote marks). I told it to sort by date, and to
show 100 messages. Then I put rec.food.cooking into the Newsgroup: Return
only messages from the newsgroup field. Then I went down to message dates
and selected from 1 Jan 2004 to today. If you think it was in the last
month or so, you could narrow it down even more, but using this criteria
got a hit on the thread. It was the 17th item down on the first page.
