Easy Patriotic Dessert

Before July gets away from us, I wanted to share with you a delicious and easy dessert we enjoyed on the 4th.

4th of July Dessert at our house

The decor in my house is "country" so patriotic holidays blend right in very well.  On the 4th of July the official red, white, and blue table runner was placed on the breakfast table.  That evening we had one of the simplest of desserts in the appropriate colors for the occasion.

In a fountain dish or water glass stemware layer the following:

fresh blueberries

Cool Whip

Graham Cracker Crumbs (or crumbled cookies)

sliced fresh strawberries

You just keep layering these ingredients until  you run out or reach the top!  It doesn't get much easier than that, and what a wonderful way to enjoy the summer's fresh fruit!
