July 4th Coming Up!

I can't wait until July 4th. With my Mom & I safely away from that other, more difficult parent, we can have a genuinely fun-filled party this time. I'll find a way to have at least sparklers for us.

And a cookout of epic proportions:

Breast of Chicken Citron

Beefsteak Tomato & Bermuda Onion Salad

Grilled Corn w/Lime Cilantro Butter

Mojitos

Strawberry Shortcakes w/Balsamic & Black Pepper Syrup


After that, since we usually don't want to fight mobs of people for good seats at a fireworks show (we once did in Miami, we weren't thrilled & it was at a hospital, of all places), we'll watch the Macy's Show on TV.
