I love the Fourth of July! The parades, the fireworks, the picnics and patriotism. Most of all, I love the red, white and blue of our flag and seeing it floating in the sunshine on so many porches and flagpoles and buntings on white porches. It's the essence of summer and a reminder that we live in a country that may not be perfect, but it is free. I want to thank everyone who participated in the recipe swap this week. There are some fantastic recipes I need to try now, and you should too. Maybe for your Fourth of July party:>) I hope everyone has a fantastic Fourth! Thanks to Kari and Kijsa for hosting this fabulous Flag Parade:>)
God bless America......truly the home of the brave and the land of the FREE and freedom loving, generous hearted people! America, I love you!!!!!!!!!
