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!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

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.
