A red, white, and blue Berry Bar is a fun and healthy idea for the holiday weekend!  And if you’re trying to cut down on all the sugary treats this summer, this buffet might be for you!  Fresh berries are so refreshing, delicious and are naturally perfect for patriotic party treats and snacks.  No baking, or fussy preparation…just pile them in bowls and let your guests customize their own!  A few  optional goodies can make this healthy alternative compare with any sweet dessert…without all the guilt!  Let me share this simple inspiration today for setting up a holiday buffet that’s easy-peasy and oh, so good!

celebrate with red, white and berries!

Sausage Plait Tutorial

Have you heard of a sausage plait? I had never heard of one prior to a friend introducing me to this beautiful AND easy meal!  Honestly I didn’t even make the connection that “plait” means braid (I guess being a boy mom limited my braid-related vocabulary).  But that’s exactly what this meal is, a braided pastry filled with a delicious sausage and apple mixture!  It’s so simple to create yet I promise the results will make you look like an expert in the kitchen.  When you pull this baby from the oven it will appear like you slaved away baking this showstopper!  This lovely meal resembles a mummy of pastry dough which also makes it a perfect entree to serve at a haunted dinner party.  I promised I’d share the main event from my spooky soiree…and here is the simple tutorial for creating it!
