Coconut-Lemon Meltaways
Whew! It's good to be back and even better to be toting a recipe that I'm super excited and proud of! Originally I thought about making these cookies after purchasing something very similar at my local grocery store a couple weeks ago. Wonderfully Raw makes a great Macaroon, so I have to give them thanks and a shout out for inspiring me to make today's recipe.
DIY Sharpie Dinnerware
Update: I am so excited that so many people are loving and trying this project! Please note that as I do not have a dishwasher in my home, I have not personally been able to test washing my pieces in a dishwasher. To date, I have had zero issues washing my pieces with normal dish soap and a soft cloth. Some people are reporting issues with the marker washing off, so you may choose to do a test first. Today’s DIY project was completely inspired by this pin that I’ve been obsessing over on Pinterest for a while now. According to the pin, you can write or doodle on dinnerware with a Sharpie marker and bake it at 350 degrees for 30 minutes and the design will stay permanently.
Cheesy Garlic Sticks
All righty. Cheesy Garlic Sticks. I make them all the time. They are delicious, they only take a handful of ingredients, and often they are filling enough to make a meal out of on the cheap. I've tried a bunch of little tweaks to come up with what I think is the most delicious recipe for Cheesy Garlic Sticks. Ready for the recipe?

The Food Gospel According to Ruth: Caprese Dip
Well I am pretty sure this one speaks for itself! I recently saw this on Pinterest and knew it was something I needed to have pronto! Caprese ANYTHING has long been a favorite of mine. Whether is it is salad as a side to dinner or shoved together on skewers, I love it and always have! The "recipe" I saw on Pinterest didn't even have a recipe per say, just pictures, and that was enough to pull me in drooling! I can only imagine what this is going to be like during tomato season as it was perfectly scruptious with the cherry tomatoes that we used in late March.

Baked cheese balls
OK, so we did the experiment with the egg roll wrappers and string cheese to make baked cheese sticks and they turned out alright...but nothing to write home about. These, my friends, were not the same outcome. Yes, I used the leftover string cheese from the above recipe. Yes, I used the leftover mix of breading from my baked zucchini chips that I kept in an airtight container in the cupboard until I figured out what to do with it. And, yes, marrying those two ingredients together made the best homemade cheeseball I've made to date.
