Super Easy Patriotic Dessert Ideas

Who doesn't need more easy entertaining ideas!?!
Whether you are the hostess with her
entertaining plan in place 3 months before an event
or the one scrambling 3 hours before show time,
here are 9 super easy Patriotic dessert ideas
to inspire your entertaining plans
for Memorial Day and the
4th of July.

But first.
A personal reflection with gratitude this Memorial Day:
Though I never met him (he passed away when
his daughter, my mother, was expectant with me),
on this holiday my thoughts always turn
to my grandfather, Jesse,
a southern gentleman and unlikely war hero.
 
An innocent teenager in the Tennessee hills,
he somehow found himself in the trenches of the
Argonne Forest of France,
a young WWI soldier who fought
in that infamous battle in France
which proved to be pivotal
for victory.

I cannot imagine the horrors he witnessed
as an adolescent so far from home, and
I'm so thankful for the sacrifices and the pains
which secured our present freedoms.

Back Over There (St. Martin's Press, 2017)
This year marks the 100th anniversary of WWI,
and Richard Rubin has beautifully written
Back Over There, following the trail of the
American Expeditionary Forces
on the Western Front.
You may be surprised to learn
Rubin found in present day France,
an abiding fondness
for America and Americans.

You owe it to yourself to read this
engaging book!

So let's celebrate, but more importantly,
let's remember why the stars and stripes wave.
