The Fourth of July is almost here, which means backyard parties and barbecues. There is always delicious food at these get-togethers, and you always want to bring something that everybody will love. If you are looking for some tasty desserts to bring to one of these parties, look no farther! Here are fifteen red, white, and blue dessert recipes that are sure to be the hit of your Fourth of July celebration:


1. Red White and Blue Rice Krispy Treats

I tried out this recipe for red, white, and blue rice krispy treats and the turned out spectacular! They were extremely easy to make and only required a few simple ingredients to make. They are just like the rice krispy treats that you loved as a kid, but perfect for your Fourth of July celebrations; all you need to do is melt the ingredients and mix them and leave them to harden. They are a delicious treat that will be a hit at your Fourth of July Party!



Ingredients: Six cups of rice krispies cereal, one package of mini marshmallows, three tablespoons of margarine or butter, red and blue food coloring.

Directions:

Gather your supplies and divide the rice krispies and marshmallows in three for the three layers (2 cups rice krispies and about 2 cups marshmallows).

Stick the marshmallows in a microwave safe bowl along with the margarine (1 TB) for a few minutes or until they start to get big and almost touch the top of the microwave. Take them out, stir well and add the food coloring until desired color. Then add the 2 cups of Rice Krispies and stir well. Press into well greased 9×9 pan.

Do this for all 3 layers starting with the blue, then white (which is just regular and requires no food coloring) and then red. Pat down all layers really well using wax paper. Let set for a bit, then cut, serve and enjoy!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
