Sandi, at Rose Chintz Cottage is holding a special Bird Lover's Tea and I'm sharing my son's work- in- progress painting of bird's. Won't you stay and enjoy some Lemon Berry Trifle and some blueberry tea? I've made an individual trifle in a pretty canning jar.

Here's a better picture of his painting. He is making all the birds about the same size and not according to nature. He still has three birds left to paint. You can see the one in the middle just has the shape.

I box instant lemon pudding
1 1/2 cups milk
1 1/2 cups frozen whipped topping, thawed
1 angel food cake, cubed
Fresh assorted berries
Mix the pudding with the milk according to package directions. Fold in the thawed whipped topping. Set aside.
Layer half of the cubed angel food cake in the bottom of a trifle dish, or individual dishes. Top with half the pudding mixture. Add a layer of berries. Repeat. Refrigerate until serving time.

Here's when he first started the painting.

Here's another phase. When it's finished, I'll share the completed painting.

Kitty, lemon and berries are a winning combination. '-)
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your son's painting. Are you enjoying your watercolor lessons?
Have a great week.
The painting is very pretty and your trifle sounds like a nice treat Kitty! Oh, I see strawberry pie in the 'you might also likes'... That sounds really good too! Happy St.Patty's Day:@)
ReplyDeleteThat trifle looks wonderful! I wouldn't mind some right now for breakfast. :)
ReplyDeleteYour son's painting is coming along beautifully! Can't wait to see it all finished.
Love the painting, it is wonderful and the trifle looks soooooooo good. Hugs, Marty
ReplyDeleteFun to see what your son is painting and interesting that he is painting all the species in a similar size. The trifle sounds yummy! Wonder if it would work with any pudding flavor...
ReplyDeleteHello Kitty,
ReplyDeleteI almost made trifles in mason jars for my tea today but went with scones instead. Yours looks wonderful! Your son is doing a lovely job of his painting and I look forward to seeing the finished painting. I would love to see my son get back into painting too but he's too busy these days. Thank you for sharing and joining me for tea. Happy St. Patricks Day, sweet friend!
Blessings & hugs,
Sandi
Your son's painting is just precious, Kitty - I love the colorful birds and the pretty background. I can imagine it hanging in a very special place when it is done. Your lemon-berry trifle is wonderful! I love how you serve it in the canning jar, and it is easy, too - something that would be great to serve a crowd. I always wanted to learn to paint. Happy St. Patrick's Day, Dear Friend! Hugs xo Karen
ReplyDeleteI love your son's painting of the birds. They are all so sweet. The trifle in a jar looks really delicious. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteHe is very talented, Kitty! I could never paint anything like that!
ReplyDeleteYour trifle seems too easy...it sure looks good! I love your little shamrock plant, too. My Mom had one that lasted for YEARS & YEARS. I've not had the same luck with them. LOL
Your son is a talented painter and has captured the colours of the birds well. A glass of trifle sounds yummy to have with tea today and I see an emerald green mug to have it in.
ReplyDeleteHi Kitty-Happy St Pat's Day. Your son is so talented. I envy those who can paint!
ReplyDeleteThe trifle just looks so yummy.
Oh how I love individual servings..they're so neat and tidy. ;-) When I come to visit you..would you make these for me please??(giggle). I love lemon and berries together too. Your sons painting is looking great. XO
ReplyDeleteYou have one amazing son. Perfect for today! Have a wonderful week. Blessings, Martha
ReplyDeleteYour son's painting will be one of my favorites of his! Looking forward to seeing it completed. The trifle looks so good! xo
ReplyDeleteI think the idea of a trifle along with tea sounds delightful! And I enjoyed seeing your son's painting of the birds. He is a very talented young man!
ReplyDeleteThe trifle looks wonderful! Did you see the theme for the next challenge? You will have to use that painting and do another vignette.
ReplyDeleteYes, we had a great day celebrating our Irish heritage and seeing the gkids, it was loud, but fun!
Hi Kitty, what a beautiful looking trifle and how cute in the canning jar! Your son is so talented and the painting so lovely! What a wonderful treasure!
ReplyDeleteHug, Nancy.
Your son is so talented! What a wonderful picture. The trifle looks delicious :). Thanks for your comment at my blog.
ReplyDeleteThe trifle looks delicious. when I was growing up, trifle was "company dessert"! My mom made it in a large glass bowl, but I like the idea of individual servings. Your son is very talented. Love all the beautiful colors he is using.
ReplyDeleteI have no clue why my comment didn't post just now. I'm sitting in a dark hospital room and must have clicked something random on the keyboard. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteI love both the painting AND the trifle recipe.
That is one great picture - I love all those birds. What a talent! This is a darling and creative posting Kitty!
ReplyDeleteYour son is doing an amazing watercolor. Does he love to watch birds ?
ReplyDeleteTea & trifle , watching or painting birds... a very good time.
The birdies are adorable! WOW! He sure can paint good! I can't draw a straight line! The triffle looks good but the presentation is wonderful! Just can't beat using a jar! Hugs and blessings, Cindy
ReplyDeleteKitty, your son is so talented, and he's painting one of my favorite subjects -- birds! I hear them chirping outside our window right now. :) Our neighbor's two sons and friends of our son, Will, are both artists. They can both paint and draw; I think that's amazing!
ReplyDeleteThis lemon berry trifle looks wonderful; I just LOVE anything lemon. Your presentation in a jar is perfect for spring, Kitty. :-D I'm off to pin this; my Pinterest recipe boards are full of your recipes, my friend. Have a great day!
Blessings,
Denise at Forest Manor
Kitty, that painting is wonderful. How fun that he paints and such talent. I love anything presented in a jar and lemon and raspberry are two of my favorites. Wish I had one now.
ReplyDeleteLove the painting but that trifle is also calling my name!
