Vaccinated supper tonite… Live from NYC…
HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY 🇺🇸🎇💥
Stunning… bright azure skies… low humidity… temps in the mid 80’s… picture perfect day to celebrate with family and friends... gathering for the first time since the pandemic began 🥰 Unfortunately not a great day for Mr Sam… spending the time inside the house… windows and doors shut tight… keeping the sound of fireworks at bay 🙀😻
Lots of delicious food at our son and DIL’s home… burgers, hot dogs, sausages, skirt steak… potato salad… sole slaw… macaroni salad… cowboy caviar… plenty of cold beer 🍺 and wine 🍷
Fun appetizers… 7 layer dip… empanadas… salsa… lots of chips and crackers for snacking… crudités and onion dip… and finally watermelon… butter cookies… red white and blue skewers (strawberries, blueberries and marshmallows) and cupcakes 🧁
Our contribution to the feast… 7 layer dip (recipe courtesy of the Washington Post) and a sugar baby watermelon 🍉
Just delightful… watching the local fireworks from the back deck… lasting about an hour… spectacular show… our little Princess 👸🏻 slept through the whole racket… smart mommy keeping the volume up on her white noise machine… drowning out most of the noise 💥
Today begins the diet… time to lose the pandemic pounds… all the bread making… baking and desserts finally catching up with us both… pants too tight… cholesterol too high… hubs sugar higher too… Mediterranean Keto for us both… wishing us the strength to follow through and the determination to complete our regimen… fingers crossed🤞 that it’s not too difficult 🙃
Covid still around… make the choice #GetYourJabOn and join the solution… mask up when necessary and wash those germy hands 😷💕
How was your day? What’s on your plate? Thoughts?
