Christmas in July...With Your Slow Cooker

There have been record heat surges all over the country this summer, prompting many to set up camp next to their air conditioners. If you’re like me, you probably can’t wait until fall and winter roll around so you can stop suffocating every time you take a seat in your car.

While you can’t change the weather outside, you can certainly create a Christmas-time atmosphere in your own home with a Christmas in July celebration! Crank up the air conditioner, rock a Christmas sweater, hang up some snowflakes, and cook up your favorite holiday treats with our friends over at AllFreeSlowCookerRecipes.com.
