  1. I'm right there with you Tricia! That White Cheddar Dip sounds sinfully dangerous and I''ll be serving it to dear friends coming to visit for a few days this week! I have made the Strawberry Balsamic chicken wings many times and they are the BEST ever!!! I've tried other artisan jams too and all have been delicious. These wings will be offered to our guests as well on the "appie" table.

    1. Thanks so much, Bobbie I'm so glad you love the Strawberry Balsamic Wings recipe! Thank you so much!
      ❤️ Chris

  2. I have to try that white cheddar dip next time we have company. I'm afraid to make it for just us - because I bet I'd eat it all. Everything looks great and delicious and those cowboy cookies look terrific too 🙂 Pinned
