I think most everybody in our country
0:06
is gonna be celebrating the beginning of summer
0:13
I know some parents, myself that are crying
0:18
because there's no school,
0:20
because it certainly keeps them engaged, learning,
0:23
and always being busy.
0:28
But we look forward to the summer when we don't have
0:31
to worry about school and we can get up
0:33
and go anywhere we want to, anytime we want to,
0:41
But, so anyway, I remember back,
0:45
one of my most fun memorial days,
0:49
and I don't know why I think it's fun
0:50
'cause I went up in the hospital,
0:53
but we had, the kids were in school,
0:58
but it was Memorial Day, so all the parents
1:03
had a day off from tending to children.
1:07
And so we went to a friend's condo
1:11
where they had a pool
1:13
and we had the most fun, fun day,
1:17
just acting like kids.
1:19
So it was fun. But they don't do that anymore.
1:23
I think the kids are now out on Memorial Day.
1:26
Am I right about that, Eddie?
1:28
- [Eddie] In the South mainly, yes.
1:32
- We we love to celebrate down here.
1:35
What holiday is it? Yay.
1:41
So if you're gonna be part of a gathering
1:44
and you're asked to bring something,
1:47
if desserts are your thing, this dessert is so good.
1:57
And you know, we talking about Memorial Day,
2:02
You can save the recipe for Labor Day
2:04
where it's a real celebration.
2:06
The kids are going back to school.
2:10
Well this is delicious and so easy.
2:13
I've got to locate a great big bowl though
2:16
so I can get y'all started.
2:18
This is a lemon berry trifle,
2:24
and we're gonna use a prepared cheesecake product.
2:34
And I tasted it. It's very, very good.
2:37
I've never seen this product,
2:39
Theresa was telling me about it,
2:42
but I've got to step away and find a big bowl, y'all.
2:46
'Cause it's gonna get big.
2:54
I'm gonna stir together the two containers of the cheesecake
2:58
and I've got like a fourth of a cup of lemon curd
3:03
and it's just gonna give it a little boost
3:10
I happen to love lemon curd.
3:17
You just want to incorporate that lemon curd
3:21
throughout all the cheesecake.
3:24
All right, so I'm gonna put about two cups
3:29
of the cream in the bottom of our trifle dish.
3:34
And I'm gonna try very, very hard
3:41
not to mess up the sides
3:42
because I want everybody to be able to see,
3:46
you know, the layers.
3:51
And that was just a little over two cups.
3:55
It's gonna be two and a third cup recommended
3:59
for your first layer.
4:05
I don't wanna touch the sides. Not yet.
4:09
I don't wanna touch the sides yet.
4:39
All right. And I need another third.
4:52
It's not often you'll see me measuring things like this,
4:56
but I'm doing it today
4:59
'cause I wanna make sure
5:03
that I have the proper amount
5:06
to do the whole trifle with.
5:12
All right, now, trying not to
5:23
a messy presentation of my bowl,
5:27
I'm gonna get a spoon.
5:31
How did I get that right there? How did I do that?
5:37
I wasn't even over there.
5:47
I'm gonna take my spoon
5:49
and just kind of push it
5:52
against the sides of our dish.
6:05
'Cause what's special about this recipe,
6:08
or trifles in general is the layering,
6:13
being able to see the layers.
6:27
put two cups of the crumbs.
6:29
Now these crumbs, y'all,
6:32
are, they're a vanilla Oreo.
6:40
I thought this was like a blonde Oreo, but it's not.
6:48
It's just vanilla wafers.
6:51
So we're gonna sprinkle two cups
6:55
on top of our cheesecake.
7:03
Turn my bowl and try to keep it going
7:09
as even as I can make it.
7:15
All right, that's one cup,
7:26
All right. How does that look from y'all's point of view?
7:32
Eddie, I don't hear anybody telling me.
7:36
They're not answering me, I think.
7:40
- [Eddie] There you go. Turned it that way, it looks fine.
7:46
- It's all in how it's turned, isn't it?
7:51
I bet that'll level it out, right? Yes.
7:55
All right, now we're gonna add two cups
8:15
And I'm just gonna mix 'em all together in this other bowl.
8:20
And that's certainly not necessary.
8:25
You can do it however you want to do it,
8:32
but I just wanna make sure my measurements are right.
8:37
- [Speaker] And of course I picked red, white, and blue ones
8:40
- [Paula] Uh-huh. Of course you did.
8:43
Thank you. - You're welcome.
8:54
- Oh, this is gonna be so heavenly.
9:09
All right, how many did I do? Did I do, that was two?
9:14
I didn't have a cup then.
9:16
Okay, now we're just gonna repeat
9:19
what we did the last time.
9:23
Okay, y'all. The last layer.
9:31
And I'm just gonna pile that fruit up in it.
9:37
Oh, and that got some crumbs on it. That's all right.
9:46
It doesn't really matter how they lay,
9:49
but I just want it to lay pretty.
9:58
Perfect for Memorial Day.
10:06
I want some. Do y'all want some?
10:12
You think I can dig deep
10:14
and get me a little bite
10:18
without messing it up too much?
10:48
I did mess it up a little bit,
10:49
but I can fix that right back.
11:00
Love and best dishes y'all.
11:01
And I hope that y'all have a wonderful, safe,
11:09
Love and best dishes.
