Spring is here. The weather is becoming nicer and it's time to plan for party season - End of year school parties, graduation parties, bridal showers, recitals and more. My April, May, and June months are filled with activities. If your friends are like mine, you may be expected to prepare something. Avoid "Store Bought"! Wow your friends with these special easy to fix treats.

1) Blueberry Delight -- I received so many requests for this dessert recipe at a recent luncheon that I added it to the website the next day! This is a perfect light dessert, just in time for Spring.
