Add sliced strawberries and 1 cup of the blueberries to thickened gelatin; stir gently. Spoon over cake slices.
REFRIGERATE 4 hours or until firm. Spread whipped topping over gelatin. Arrange strawberry halves on whipped topping for stripes of flag. Arrange remaining 1/3 cup blueberries on whipped topping for stars. Store in refrigerator.

ummmmm... did we or did we not have a 4th of july tie dying party in which this was not an item...i am offically offended! ;)
it looks totally tasty!
next year, i am ON it! ;)
i am jealous of your cake and wish sometimes that i would remember to be patriotic and family oriented.
It's a pity, M, that you didn't get to pick your family members.
We could totally do the cake for the Dog days of Summer and make like a constelation instead of a flag. Are you on board?
