Happy Birthday, America!

Humbled by their service...

Celebrate with the ones you love!

I'm loving this...

Eggplant from my garden (getting a bath before they do their duty...)

Olive oil, cracked pepper & kosher salt will make these babies sing!

That meat's been marinating a long time -- just waiting for destiny to be fulfilled.

Hubs has a killer grill method!

Just the perfect "done-ness" - straight to the table...

The loaded plate. (Please wipe the drool off your monitor & keyboard...)

I love our house's entire exterior being one color (faded, watered-down paint makes for some interesting color combos...)

My cup runneth o'er...

I ♥ simple syrup & the way it lets drink-making be so easy! Iced tea, iced coffee... it's all good!

At last! The cobalt tree has bloomed!

I loves me some ice-y peach-y drink-y goodness...




I ♥ being able to share with Paisley Jade's weekly round-up of thankfulness!
