    Look at all those cute ideas! I’m not doing anything big this year, but last year I hosted a little Fourth of July party, and I made this red, white, and blue cupcakes that I frosted with vanilla frosting and then topped with blueberries and strawberries to make a “flag.” One of the prouder moments of my baking career haha.

    Those yogurt pops look amazing! I celebrated Canada Day earlier this week with a fun 5K run with my little guy then a day at the lake and the splash park then some fun in the backyard. It was perfect! We even grilled my favourite supper– bbq chicken kabobs and corn on the cob– so good!! Happy 4th!

    I’ll be running the Peachtree Road Race (10k) in the morning and then going to a 4th of July party in the afternoon! A busy, but exciting day is in store for me! Also, all of those recipes look amazing!

    We’re traveling to see friends, so I didn’t make anything. It’s going to be a very fly-by-the-seat-of-our-pants weekend, so we’ll see what’s in store for us. Have so much fun celebrating!

    Everything looks great, they are so attractive, it’s hard to resist. Especially Watermelon and Feta Flag. But Blueberry, Strawberry and Jicama Salsa are not bad. Thank you for sharing
