@Meredith: Thanks, Meredith! It is really hot up here (mid-80s, hot for Alaska) right now, and I tried to put the cupcakes in the freezer while we set up the rest of the table, but even that didn’t make a difference! Our popsicles were melting and the icing was running off the cupcakes, but it made it even more fun to try to eat them fast before they melted!

Those popsicles are great for kids and adults – no sugar,and only 30 calories. Thank you for coming over – it’s nice to talk to you!

I love that your cupcakes are melting! That tells me this is a real expression of hospitality, not just a still life for the internet’s sake.

Nice to see the sugar-free popsicles. Now that’s a thoughtful touch.

My all time favorite table cloth is the basic red and white. Can’t go wrong with that one. I love those plates. So holiday-ish! The mirrors are a nice touch. Got a sweet daughter to help. Love her name. You’re teaching her well! Have a wonderful 4th of July!

@Pinky: I got the chargers at Walmart on clearance after Christmas several years ago. I got gold, red, and silver in packs of 4 for next to nothing! The only drwaback is they can’t go in the dishwasher, but they are so versatile, it’s worth it. Thanks for coming by!

@Danielle: Thank you! I think the most complex part of all was the napkin folding, which was done by my 9 year old. Pretty much anyone could put this together to wow their guests without a lot of work. Have a great day!
