Do you ever have those days where it seems like the world hates you? Yeah well I had that day today. I have two things that scare me to death. My computer crashing or having my camera break or get stolen. I hide my camera whenever we go somewhere. Robbers can steal whatever they want, just don’t take the camera. 🙂  Anyway my computer crashed today. I saw my food blogging career flash before my eyes and I immediately had an anxiety attack. I took my kids to the Apple store only to find our that my computer is 5 years and 1 month old and anything over 5 years is now considered vintage and they don’t carry the parts. Really? So what if I have a vintage computer. Isn’t vintage in style right now? Ok so you want to know the best part of my day? These.

I wanted to make something that was easy and delicious and patriotic for the fourth of July. How cute did these turn out? I made them in the afternoon just in time for them to be devoured in less than 2 minutes by four guys.

They were so simple to make using Pillsbury’s Ready to bake sugar cookies. Then topped with cream cheese and your favorite fruit. I decided to use deliciously ripe strawberries and blackberries to resemble a flag. I thought that it would be fun to make them patriotic for the 4th. I loved how cute they turned out!

These were such a hit with everyone! Even my little ones loved them. I drizzled them with a simple glaze at the end and they turned out absolutely amazing! At the end of the day I told my boys that I was thankful that they went with me on my errands and to the Apple store. They said, anytime mom! We just want to see you feeling better. 🙂

  1. Super cute! I have an awesome sugar cookie recipe that I can do these with… my son will love this!

  2. I think the computer crashing/camera getting stolen must be a (food) bloggers worst nightmare because I worry about those things waaaaay more than I really should! 🙂

    BTW.. these little fruit pizzas are darling! 🙂
