Hot summer days call for a sandwich lunch and a tall glass of lemonade. Cucumber sandwiches, tomato, turkey clubs, tuna or egg salad...any sandwich your heart desires. I could eat a sandwich every day from June through August. Another classic summertime sandwich: pimiento cheese. You can find the orangey cheese spread in multiple places at… Continue reading Pimiento Cheese Poppers

Surprise Meringue Kisses
Merry Christmas Eve Eve! I can't believe it's already December 23rd. I remember putting up my tree on November 1st and that feels like just yesterday. I'm sad to see the Christmas season come and go once again, but I'm excited to have my own Christmas here at my place. My parents are in town… Continue reading Surprise Meringue Kisses
Crockpot Christmas Candy
There are certain recipes that you attribute to people in your life. My coworkers and I are known for specific things that we always bring to parties because they're so beloved. Emily's corn dip is the best I've ever had. I can eat a dozen of Halee's ham pinwheels and not feel guilty about it.… Continue reading Crockpot Christmas Candy
Peppermint Mocha Cookies
Peppermint is my jam. When I was a smoker (I know, bad habit, but I quit a long time ago!) I only smoked menthols. I've chewed the exact same type of gum for a decade (Five peppermint). Don't ever hand me a stick of spearmint gum, that's not my thing. I love dinner mints and… Continue reading Peppermint Mocha Cookies
Christmas Cookie Truffles
It's December 2nd, and if your Christmas tree isn't up yet---what are you waiting for?! I'm currently sitting here listening to Christmas music play through my stereo and looking at the lights glisten on my tree. I'm fully in the Christmas spirit, and that couldn't be more visible than if you step into my kitchen.… Continue reading Christmas Cookie Truffles
Cinnamon Roll Cake Balls
It has been a lazy weekend in the Welcher household. Since we had planned on being snowed in on Saturday, we had nothing in the works to get out of the house. Neither the snow nor the ice came but our plans were unwavering: stay on the couch, in our pajamas, for 24 hours or… Continue reading Cinnamon Roll Cake Balls
Christmas Shortbread Bites
One of the best parts about Christmas is all of the goodies leading up to the day. Homemade candies, party mixes and cookies abound. Cookies are never in short supply in my house around the holidays. I don't usually break outside of the box when it comes to Christmas cookies, though. My mom, grandma and… Continue reading Christmas Shortbread Bites
St. Nick Snack Mix
I cannot believe that Christmas is only 5 days away! It feels like just yesterday it was Thanksgiving. Heck, just yesterday was Halloween, right?? I've already got the turkey breast defrosting in the fridge since we are having our Christmas dinner on Friday. On Sunday, it's all about the Christmas breakfast casserole in the morning while opening our presents. Then,… Continue reading St. Nick Snack Mix
My Man’s Cookies
One of the reasons I love Christmas so much is cookies. My mom, grandma, aunt and I always make mass amounts of sugar cookies with a recipe we've had in the family for forever. These cute reindeer-and-star-shaped sugar cookies, once baked, either end up slathered in green & red frosting or dotted with shimmery non-pareils.… Continue reading My Man’s Cookies
