Life According To Lily

Good morning,

I'd like to start by wishing each and every one of you a very happy and safe 4th. No matter what you are doing today, I hope that it's fun and that your family gatherings will have lots of good things to eat. And now onward with some recipes!
Today there will be three recipes for you to check out. I will put them all behind cuts, that way you can look at the ones that appeal most to you. All three have a 4th of July theme to them. Well the first one isn't but all picnics need some sort of beverage.

( Strawberry-lemonade Iced Tea )

The second is a very good recipe that you can do for picnics or any time of the summer really. You may want to double or even triple the recipe depending on how many people are in your family.

( American Picnic Hot Dogs )

The last one I'm going to post is a great dessert, yeah they are just cookies but really good and real easy to make and bring to a picnic. And the good thing is? No mess while at your gathering.

( American Flag Cookies )

Ok, that's it for today lovelies. Enjoy and like i said, have a happy and safe 4th!!

Good evening readers.

Being that this coming up Monday is The 4th of july, I thaught i'd give you all some ideas of what you can make to bring to those family picnics or make at home if you are the one hosting the gathering. I will try to post recipes through out the weekend for you.
This first recipe is a very good one and it's easy to do as well. Oh and did I forget to mention very tasty?

4TH OF JULY PIE

1 pt. blueberries
20 to 25 strawberries, hulled
whipped cream
1 (3 1/4 oz.) pkg. regular vanilla pudding mix
2 c. milk
1 (8 oz.) pkg. cream cheese, softened
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 (8 inch) graham cracker pie crust

Combine pudding mix and milk in saucepan. Bring to a full boil over medium
heat, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Add cream cheese and stir until
smooth. Add vanilla. Let mixture cool for 5 minutes, stirring twice. Pour
pudding mixture into pie crust. Refrigerate 3 hours or overnight. Place
strawberries
in circle on outer edge of pie. Place one in center. Place blueberries over

That's it for tonight friends.
