Happy week of the Fourth of July, dear friends! This honestly is my favorite holiday of the entire year. Christmas, Halloween, and even my Birthday take a backseat to to the Fourth. I'm completely in love with the hot summer weather (the anti-snow, per se), the smell of BBQ & deliciously fresh food charring up on the grill, kids running wild on the soft grass, the crystal blue cool water at the pool, families coming together, the gorgeous summer nights, and of course: the night sky lit up with bright beautiful lights! I LOVE IT. All of it! I was just telling my husband this morning how excited I am for this entire week!
They were so easy to make, but look so beautiful. Plus, they tasted great, so I'm going to call this one a WIN! When you gather with your family this week to celebrate, throw these little beauties on the menu. They can be a light sweet appetizer, or even a little bite for dessert! Enjoy!
