I love Memorial Day. It’s so meaningful to me. My grandpa served in the US Army and that’s how he met my grandma. If not for his time in the service, I wouldn’t be here.
But I am very lucky that Memorial Day isn’t for him. My grandpa made it out alive. I celebrate my grandpa on Veteran’s Day and I remember those soldiers and servicemen and women who were lost in battle.
For so many people, though, Memorial Day is a three-day weekend filled with BBQ’s and patriotic treats. And that’s fine too. You do you. If you’re looking for a patriotic treat, check out our Patriotic Pound Cake.
Patriotic Pound Cake
What You’ll Need:

What You’ll Do:
Cut the tops off strawberries, then cut them in half.

While the chocolate is still warm, dip the bottom third of the strawberry into the edible glitter.
Spray whipped cream onto the slice of pound cake.
Top the whipped cream with the strawberries and enjoy.
