"I saw it on Pinterest" and a Tip

What a week! I don't know about you, but I am more than ready for the weekend! In our neck of the woods, we are having our 4th of July celebration this Sunday - since the 4th falls right in the middle of the week. We will be going to one of our local churches - they have everything going on! A car show, games for the kids, food, fireworks. It will be so much fun! The weather is going to be hot, hot, hot across much of the country, so please stay safe y'all! Will your area be celebrating early or on the 4th?

I finally have my Pinterest account working again - Last week I couldn't get it to work for nothing. I think they were changing some things - I'm just glad to have it back! ;) Here are my favorite pins from this week ... Be sure to stop by and check them out - and remember, if you would like to pin, please pin from the original site! Click the links to be taken directly there! As always, if you're on Pinterest you can follow me HERE.

Let me start by saying I love all things Red, White and Blue! I think I could decorate our whole house in Americana. (Maybe someday!) I love these Boom, Boom Poppers by Lady Behind the Curtain. They look like little fireworks - what could be more patriotic? I think they would make a cute addition to a 4th of July potluck!

"Mmmmm" was my first thought when I saw these Chipotle Chicken Tostada Bites by Apple a Day. I think people go crazy over miniature anything - and these look perfect for summer parties!

How fantastic does that fudge look? I don't know why I've never thought about doing something like this 4th of July Tie-Dyed Fudge from Taste and Tell. Super simple and very patriotic! I can see this idea working for other holidays as well ... that's definitely a win in my book!

I am so intrigued by this Cilantro Jalapeno Limeade from SteakNPotatoesKindaGurl ... It seriously makes my mouth pucker just thinking about it! I bet it would be so refreshing on a hot summer day! I can't wait to try this one!

I have only made meringues once - they were pretty simple to make. I'm not really sure why I've never thought to make them again. I can almost imagine how light and airy these Red, White and Blue Meringues from Farmgirl Gourmet are. I think they would make a nice change from the regular cookies that often adorn dessert tables - and again, very patriotic! :)
