So this is how my family celebrates holidays:
Here is some food. We made a lot. EAT!!!
We had BBQ (grilled but my Uncle insisted they were BBQ but BBQ is really slow cooking and indirect heat...but whatever I know nothing. I'm just a silly little girl) ribs, grilled corn, burgers, grilled fish, potato salad, deviled eggs, BBQ baked beans, rolls, squash, and cole slaw. For dessert we had some watermelon, chocolate sheet cake and homemade ice cream. Mouse came over for the food and was practically forcefed ribs as soon as she walked in the door.
She and I (Tis sweet of her to help) did the cleaning. And I also managed to dump the rest of the ice cream onto the kitchen floor which my Grandmother had mopped just last night.
Yep. I am accident prone.
How does one get out of being accident prone I wonder? Maybe I should do a spell that makes me more graceful...yet I somehow don't think it would help.
Anyway, I hope everyone else is having a good 4th! Happy incorrect day of declaration signing!!! (Cuz every real history major knows that it wasn't signed and sent off until the 6th of July...silly bad public school history books)
family,
food,
holidays
