Happy Birthday, U.S.A.!

I hope everyone enjoys their day of celebrating the 4th of July!


I'm so excited because my husband is home today! He's a firefighter and works lots of holidays. It's been 3 or 4 years since we got to spend the 4th of July together. Yesterday we spent the day hanging out on the beach along Lake Michigan and watched some local fireworks. Today, we'll watch a parade and more fireworks tonight. And...well....we've got to eat. So, the menu will be full of American summer classics:

Hamburgers
Hot Dogs
Bratwurst
Potato Salad
Pasta Salad
Corn on the Cob
Watermelon
Cheesecake with blueberries and strawberries

Hope you all have a good foodie day, as well!
