Declaring Independence

Nothing says homesick more than knowing the celebrations back home are just beginning...

Put another hot dog on the grill for me, won't you?

Happy 4th of July!

  3. Yeah, I'm bummed too, but I've decided to create a s'mores recipe out of marshmallows, speculoos and a bit of Belgian chocolate so it might not be a total loss.

  8. I'm making tacos and trifle for Angelo and his family today. It's got me in a great mood, even though (or maybe because)I have a feeling the meal is going to seem really bizarre to them. Hehe! ~Tui

  12. My mom and sis are over in France celebrating - stop on by, they'll be happy to put a few on the grill for you.

  13. You want ridiculous? Check out how we celebrated and we're here!

    I was homesick on those holidays abroad, too, though.

    Happy day after!

  15. Jenn, you're so darn tootin' cute.

    Our neighbors down the street put on one heck of a fireworks display on the 4th. We sat on the porch and watched. Even Lucy. My mom said, "Those loud fireworks don't even seem to bother her."

    I said, "That's because she lives with Julia, the human firework."

    We still have leftover sparklers. And while the 4th has passed, I'll light one and think of you.
