Get Your Red, White & Blue On

The 4th of July is almost here. I am sharing some previous Patriotic tables, recipes and decor. I will be sharing this buffet island decked out with red, white & blue soon.  My  handy husband built the buffet island years ago for entertaining by our round copper patio table.

The buffet Paul built is so handy when entertaining outdoors.

The copper table all decked out for Patriotic entertaining.


Red, White & Blue on the deck off our study.



Creative Patriotic Centerpiece
Dress a vase in a girl's  tutu.  Add some red, white & blue flowers and flags.
A fun and inexpensive wreath made from supplies from the dollar store.

Charlotte Cake with Fruit

This cake is made in the Charlotte Cake Mold by Nordic Ware.
You can find it  at Amazon.

Patriotic Fruit Trifle
I love using Martha Stewarts Cranberry Trifle.  I substitute the cranberries with mixed berries.

Since my Granddaughter, Michaela and family are coming this weekend, we are planning a trip to Costco and stock up on food.  Swimming, grilling, and fireworks. Mostly likely we will also have S'Mores by our firepit.

Lilly Dot is going to stay with us for a week.  She recently received an award for Student of the year. I cannot believe how grown up she is.

  5. These are beautiful! If I had to choose, I think I'd pick the first one without the tablecloth! Everything stands out so beautifully. But all are just lovely!
