4th of July: Red, White, and Food

In case you weren't aware that the most American of all of the American holidays is upon us or you've been avoiding thinking about all of the food and drink required to keep everyone entertained before the fireworks start, I have complied a list of party favorites so that you don't have to! Time to get on your red (wine), red (wine), and food!

These "Firework Piña Coladas" really put a spark in your step! These delicious and colorful fruity concoctions actually aren't much more difficult to make than regular ones! Link to recipe Here

This is so easy that if I can make it, you certainly can too! All you need is ice cream and sprinkles. Seriously. Recipe here in case you really cant figure it out from this picture.

Red, White, and Blue fruit pizza is what fruitcake is to the Holidays. Everyone brings it and it never gets fully eaten, but the amount of pointless time you spent on it is impressive. Recipe here

I need this in my life like...right now. It's a watermelon blueberry patriotic something that looks delicious. The blue rim seems like too much work but I guess it will look pretty to look at! Link here

This is another one of these super easy recipes that is pretty self explanatory, Strawberry + Chocolate + neon blue sprinkles = happiness.

If someone can tell me how to get them this pretty, I will be forever grateful. This is one of those recipes that seems easy but when you actually do it for yourself it never quite looks the same as the picture. Recipe here if you are willing to try it out and impress your guests!

This is the super easy alcoholic partner to those super easy food recipes we talked about earlier. It's literally a gin and tonic with blueberry and raspberry to give it color. Recipe here for those who still can't figure this out.


Have a happy and safe 4th of July and God Bless America!

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
