Dennys Food and Recipes: Summer Recipe: Cool Fake Watermelon Cheesecake: From Denny: This is such a fun colorful cheesecake to make that is sure to impress for any special holiday or occasion! While it looks like watermelon it's really a strawberry flavored cheesecake supported by a delicious coconut and pistachio crumble crust that imitates the watermelon rind. How clever is that? And you know it sure tastes better than the rind. :) To imitate the look of the watermelon seeds you garnish the cheesecake with mini chocolate chips.

The beauty of this cheesecake is that you don't have to bake it. Everything is done on the stove top and then chilled. Well, I'm sold; ready to start cooking? ...

Warriors Pearl Foundation

Helping homeless female military veterans come home. Started up this foundation charity when I read about how 5,000 or more female military veterans are homeless, most due to having been raped while serving in the military.

Currently, the Pentagon is not helping them as active women service members only make up 15 percent of the military. Their needs involve the issue of PTSD. The Pentagon is falling down on helping ALL soldiers with PTSD as thousands commit suicide every year from being denied help for eight months or longer after returning from a war zone.

This little foundation charity is working off the model of giving its profits to those charities who are working to help those suffering from PTSD and homeless female military vets. For those of you who are already supporting this funding effort, thank you! Please tell your friends and let's pull together to get our former service members properly housed and the medical help they need.
