A Red, White and Blue To-do

It’s mid-summer, and we’ve got a birthday to celebrate. Follow along this week as I will show you how to make this 4^th of July your most star-spangled celebration yet, beginning with a cheerful centerpiece today. Stay tuned for individual-serving cherry and blueberry cheesecake desserts, a light and healthy fruit salad, and iced fruit cubes to keep your beverages chilled. All you’ll need to come up with are the hot dogs and sparklers.

The Centerpiece

Create an all-American table display with one large or a few small cobalt blue vases. Fill each with red mini carnations and daisy mums.  Add small flags and a little something sparkly. 


A patriotic table runner sets the stage for the occasion. Finish the look with white platters and plates and some stars and stripes napkins.
