July 4th, 2010
4th of July is one of my favorite holidays. I've always loved getting dressed up in a festive red, white and blue outfit. My favorite, throughout the years, being a pair of white shorts with an american flag on the front. One side of the leg was the stars part, and the other was the stripes. This was 1990 and those shorts were a big deal. I've also always loved daytime get togethers involving sun and food. Bbq's, hangouts. And together, it all makes for a great holiday.
Today was all of that combined, minus the American flag shorts and plus pulled pork sandwiches and my now famous potato salad (which, by the way, I had to call Lily to find out how to cook potatoes!). The sun was shining full blast today and we had people over in our backyard. The BBQ was fired up the whole day and reggae played on the stereo. It's what you'd expect from a bunch of Berkeley kids done grown up.
Things are winding down here, and everyone knows except Coach, who's tearing through the house.
True Blood is on pause on the tele...and I'm going to get back to it.
