I’m all in.
Grab your fork and let’s get cooking!
Every 4th of July, my family and I go to the grandparents.
We eat hamburgers with extra mustard, juicy watermelon, and loads of potato salad in the sunshine and watch the planes fly overhead.
It’s a family affair with lots of yard games, hugs, and sparkling waters.
Grandpa mans the grill and pops out juicy burgers dripping with melted cheddar.
My sister and Grandma make the favorite potato salad by the boatload.
Mama and my brother cut up a Trader Joe’s watermelon the size of your head and mine combined.
And I pretty much do whatever else needs to be done, see: dishes.
We feast on burgers and allll the summer foods, then finish everything off with Grandma’s famous orange jello salad.
After stuffing ourselves and waving sparklers in the lawn after dark, we pile on the grass overlooking the bay and watch fireworks explode across the ocean.
It’s a magical time that leaves you feeling all mushy inside.
caesar cobb this year
This year is different.
Grandpas not here anymore, we aren’t having burgers, and we are keeping things pretty green around here, since I’m the one cooking while the guys do yard work.
It’s caesar cobb salad all the way.
We all miss Grandpa and we are not at Grandma’s this year.
Things have changed since we were little, but we are still going to watch fireworks tonight- just not by the ocean.
Instead, we will be sharing an oversized bucket of cinnamon sugar popcorn from the hood of our car next to a thousand other people.
It will still be a good time that leaves you feeling all mushy inside.
So, cheers to lunch with piles of veggies, fireworks, and fam!
Enjoy your weekend lovelies.
