Get Creative this 4th of July

This 4th of July, do something creative that brings you joy. Being creative doesn't mean you have to paint the Mona Lisa. Just do something that makes your heart sing. No matter how simple, activating your brain is known to be like therapy. Think about it, you could actually turn something like making dessert into FREE therapy. 💜

 

Artful Cocktails
This blue cocktail is my own special concoction. It's pretty so, of course, I like it. 

Combine in a shaker a one-shot of tequila, juice from two lines and ice. Shake. Pour into a martini glass. Lastly, pour about 1/2 a shot of blue curacao. Need something red? Garnish with raspberries or pomegranate arils. Sip.

These are so cute and people just adore them. Begin by taking one sheet of puff pastry and place on a cutting board. Cut out circles to line the bottom of the mason jars or ramekin. Use the jar mouth. Place the pastry circles in the jar. Slice the strawberries thinly, then combine them with blueberries in a medium-size bowl. Combine the berries with the cornstarch, flour and sugar and toss lightly. place about 1/2 cup in the jar. Take the remaining sheet of puff pastry and cut out stars with a cookie cutter or a paring knife. Please on top of the berry mixture. Place jars on cookie sheet.
