Summer Party Chips + Dip Board

Y’all know I love an impressive giant board for entertaining as well as some easy, zero-prep party food- and this chips + dip board doubles as both! This is such a perfect summertime snack or appetizer for by the pool, at your next cookout, or any summer get-together! The best part is that there’s ZERO cooking involved (unless you count chopping a few things and opening some cans!) yet this is a spread that is sure to impress all your guest AND be super delicious as well. I love that guests can mix, match, and customize their own selections and taste ingredients as they please. You can find the full ingredients list and instructions for putting this one together below as well as the link to shop the exact tray I used for this board too!

More Amazon Baby Favorites - 6 Months

It’s truly amazing how quickly babies grow out of things and I constantly feel like I need to be buying something new to keep up! Amazon is a god-send for parents because we can quickly and easily order what we need, right when we think of it, and have it delivered right to our door. I pretty much get everything I need that’s baby related on Amazon, so I wanted to share some of our latest favorites for the 5-8 month range! Find the full list below + shopping links for what JW is loving right now!

Summer Dessert Board

If you’ve been following a while you know I love to cook, but hate baking (way too much math and science involved and I hate measuring). So when I need to bring a dessert somewhere and still impress, here’s my solution: the dessert board! This one’s even themed for Memorial Day festivities, but there’s a million different ways you could customize it! And the best part, no baking required! I seriously bought everything at Kroger and just cut a few things up! Arrange and you’re done! Yes, even the little flowers are edible too! I can’t think of a better way to eat dessert either, getting to mix and match and try bites of all the delicious things.

The prices cannot be beat as well as the convenience of having it on my doorstep in just a couple days.
