Happy Birthday Matt Trifle

Trifle is Matt's favorite, and this year I made a good 'un.
Happy Birthday Matt! Trifle
Pound cake
couple teaspoons of rum (or more, if you're WILD and WICKED. Or a pirate.)
Doubled recipe of vanilla pudding
Strawberry preserves
Thinly sliced green apples
purple seedless grapes, cut in half


In a glass bowl, put down a layer of cake slices, and sprinkle them with the rum. Around the edges of the bowl, arrange a layer of the apple slices and grapes so they're visible. Then pour on half of the pudding (still warm and unset is fine). Then another layer of cake slices, more jam some more fruit, and the rest of the pudding. Arrange the rest of the fruit artistically on top. Chill a bit before serving. Voila! You may get reviews as spectacular as I got: "Wow, Becca, this is a good--fruit salad?"
