Happy Fourth of July!



So here's how we'll be commemorating our country's independence:

  • nearly 16 pounds of ribs
  • hot dogs, salmon burgers and all the buns that accompany them
  • one giant watermelon
  • assorted soft drinks, juices, bottled water, wine and bottled sangria
  • chips and dips
  • coleslaw fixings
  • veggie platter
  • a variety of poppers and sparklers (none of the heavier stuff because our city doesn't allow them and we're wusses)
  • many, many friends in our tiny back yard

Do you think we're doing enough to help stimulate the economy?

Hope you all have a great Fourth of July weekend. Stay safe and don't lose any fingers!

And to Seattleites who are thinking of hitting Gas Works park for the fireworks show, don't say I didn't warn you: Click here and bring your bathroom supplies.
