I come by the name of the Red, White and Blue Grandma for a very good reason ... my 4th of July decorations and party supplies are second only to those I have collected for Christmas. I was thrilled to find a flag Jello mold ... but the first use was a disaster! I quickly realized this special dessert could not hold up for a family picnic on what had to have been a record heat wave across the Midwest. Happily, this tribute to our country fares better!
