Festive (and sweet) 4th

Although I haven't found as many fun (and simple) craft ideas as I would like, there are a ton of yummy dessert ideas for the 4th. Here are a few that are pretty simple. 

Berries are an easy way to give sweets a patriotic feel! Case in point – festive treats from Martha Stewart’s Red, White, & Blue Desserts gallery…

• Red, White, & Blue Parfaits 
• Red, White, & Blueberry Trifle (This dessert looks so pretty – and store-bought pound cake cuts down your prep time!)
• Flag Cupcakes (Try substituting small blueberries for the piped "stars" to make the flag decoration even easier.)
• Summer Shortcake
