I love holidays, especially the ones where it’s considered appropriate to prepare themed foods and brightly-colored desserts. Valentine’s Day? Yes. Washington’s birthday? Not so much. So in honor of the 4th of July, check out these adorable and tasty-looking treats and beverages that are perfect for the holiday:
- Red, White & Blue Sangria
- America’s Birthday Cake
- Grown-Up Fruity Sangria Popsicles
- Yellow Cake Pie with Chocolate Mousse
- White Strawberry-Lemon Sangria
- Berry Bliss Rocket Pops
If you’re a mom, you know how it goes – after baby is born, your whole body changes. And your belly is usually the hardest hit area, remaining poochy, squishy and round even after you’ve shed the baby weight. I never lost the belly between my first and second pregnancies, but this time around I’m determined to make it happen. That’s why I plan on trying these Pooch-Banishing Exercises as recommended by REAL moms who’ve seen REAL results.
Check out One Fit Foodie’s I Dare You To… post. And make sure to accept at least one dare on the list!
A sweet potato is one of those ingredients that can hook me ino pretty much any recipe, but I don’t see it served very often for breakfast. So I’m excited to try this brunch-appropriate recipe for Sweet Potato Hash with Caramelized Onions, Sausage and Eggs from Ferris Wheel Of… Sweet potatoes and eggs for me, sausage and onions for my husband? It’s a winning combo
Have a wonderful weekend!
