A couple of years ago, I posted these amazing Garlic Herb Chicken Wings inspired by a trip to Florida and a quaint little wood-fired restaurant, Joe Mama’s in Port St. Joe. If you make it that way, do visit Joe Mama’s. We loved everything we tried. I especially loved their goat cheese appetizer, and it inspired this recipe for Herby Baked Goat Cheese.

Hey, are you guys like me, just about over chips, dips, and salsas when thinking about making an app to serve or bring? (The price, alone, of a bag of chips is just about enough to make me gasp.) Maybe you’ll want to join me in making these Cajun Stuffed Mushrooms?

This Creamy Apple Cheesecake Dip will bring out the child in anyone! Versions of this dip have been circulating for decades, under various names, so you (or maybe your kids) may have tried or even made some before. This is my fave, time-tested apple dip, easy enough for a snack, and fabulous for a get-together.

This light and airy Berry Cream Cake might just be the quintessential summer dessert. The creamy topping showcases whatever berries you choose to strew across it. For added flavor, feel free to pass a bowl of lightly sugared berries (not shown) of either a single type of berry you’ve used or maybe all of them, mixed together.

For years I’ve avoided Classic Hummingbird Cake. Honestly, it wasn’t really that much of an issue since I lived in areas where it was unlikely to pop up all over as it does here in the South. You’ll see it here, at picnics, potlucks, and at all kinds of get-togethers.
