Anyone have any great decorating ideas or recipes for this Holiday? It is coming up soon. I am going to a Parade in the morning and having some friends over for a cook out in the afternoon.

Delicia,
I like to make a cake and decorate it with cool whip and put strawberries in rows and blueberries in the corner to make it look like a flag. I saw it in a magazine once. I like to use angel food cake in a 9x13 pan. Makes a lighter recipe.

I also found a cute little basket to hold paper plates and utensils. It is decorated with red and blue stripes and stars. Sometimes I mix red and white tablecloth with blue and white napkins just to give the patriotic look to everything. You can find some of those at the dollar store.

We are planning a picnic too. Hope you have fun!

Always remembering those who gave up their lives for our freedoms!

LOL! Melody, you're right.
Those cakes are soooo easy and they make things look festive too!
