Hope everyone is enjoying this beautiful Independence Day. We’ll be heading out in a little bit for a BBQ at our friend’s house. I decided to bring a flag cake to the BBQ and had some help from my daughter.

The recipe made a lot of batter so we made two cakes. I think I’ll bring one to my neighbor if we don’t dig into first. Here’s the one my daughter decorated. Ok well not entirely, but she did a great job putting all the fruits on top.

Here’s the one I did. There are really supposed to be two rows of rasberries on each line but I think there is some kind of rasberry shortage going on in this town because I had a hard time finding some. And I almost got all the stars in there, I guess this flag represents the continental USA.

What a fun (and yummy) to be doing with the kids!
