Some of you may not know this, but the 4th of July, Independence Day is my FAVORITE HOLIDAY EVER.
That's right, I like it more than Christmas, Thanksgiving and even more than Halloween.
I have told all of our children that when they get married I don't care if they come home for Christmas, Thanksgiving or any other holiday as long as they come home for the 4th of July!
I mean think about it.
You get them longer, and you get them during the summer!
It is a holiday fun day!
There is really NO STRESS involved when it comes to the 4th! You throw some burgers on the grill, you swim and you blow things up! How fun is that?!
On the 3rd our family hit the road again and headed to Shreveport, LA! My favorite place to spend the 4th. I spend it with my sisters from another mother. I've known these girls for years, Kimberly and I go W A Y back, but that is a story for another time. Today it is about the BREAD. You seek Kak, the beautiful lady in the top center? She makes this amazing cinnamon bread with a starter that has been going for something like 50 years.. It is so good FIGHTS BREAK out over it. People steel it and hide it. True story. We could smell it when she drove up. We were like flies on ....well you know the saying. Anyway I insisted on a photo before we dove in. Blue tongue on the end took a bite right after this photo was taken and then 2 loaves disappeared. Blue tongue and I found one loaf later in a drawer and ate it ALL BY OURSELVES..(well, I do think I shared a bite with Hubby). That's what you get (Kimberly!) for trying to hide Kak's awesome bread.
