  1. I saw those strawberries on another site and was drooling! What great inspiration you posted. What are your weekend plans? I’ve missed your posts!

  2. Hi Amy! I totally want to make all these desserts! My standard 4th of July desserts have been either cheesecake with blueberries and raspberries or red and blue jello with Cool Whip. I’ll have to try some of these 🙂 Oh, and I loved the strawberries with blue sugar!
