Mmmm. Dessert. No good meal is complete without a good dessert. No good holiday is complete without a good meal. So, what I’m saying is… bring on the dessert! I look forward to 4th of July BBQ’s because I always walk away from the celebration with at least one new recipe idea. Here are some great dessert ideas I found on my favorite site, pinterest.

I’ve never made a trifle, but after seeing how good looking and (maybe) simple they are to make, I think I may need to try it this year. Again, I’m loving the blue berries and strawberries. As long as you’ve got some fruit in the dessert then I’m guessing it’s healthy and you’re OK to get seconds.

The trifle looks amazing. I’ve always wanted to try making one too. Maybe I’ll buy a trifle dish and do it.
