To all my American friends, and relatives, I wish you a Happy 4th.
I actually now have two American relatives. Both cousins, and their spouses and children too of course. I know at least one friend who will be wearing earplugs over the majority of this holiday. I must admit we suffered a bit on Sunday as although there were official fireworks, there was some idiot setting off really loud banger which sounded close enough to have been on our balcony. Matt was already in bed and it woke him up. This was gone 11. More were lit around midnight.
Rushed over to the asparagus farm this morning and got a large load of the green stuff, weeds as Matt has taken to calling it. He does eat it but not with the same enthusiasm. This time this is definitely the last this year. However, I have now bought the ingredients to make some Egg Rolls so that will be my next project, in the air fryer of course. I also got an avocado for my other recipe.
Nothing much on TV tonight for us, so I put Bambi on and was informed it was a movie for children and not for someone Matt's age. I enjoyed it, I guess being 3 years younger makes a difference!! I am still in touch with my inner child!
Won't give you a recipe today, the majority of my readers will probably be barbecuing.
Have a great day and a super holiday.

I love fireworks but unfortunately our pets hate them. Every post I read today seems to be about the 4th of July - not surprising! - and I too wish all my American friends a happy Independence Day.
ReplyDeleteThat's Purrfect
I used to love fireworks Pat, but I worry about animals, wild ones as well as domestic. I also object to people setting off loud bangs late at night.
DeleteThe sun is still shining here. There are no fireworks to be seen in the daylight . Yet there have been bombs going off for the last hour. How can anyone like that?
DeleteI guess they just like the noise and maybe frightening people and animals Denise.
DeleteSo glad you got the asparagus and some other things to get your culinary love going ... take care and enjoy the day - Hilary
ReplyDeleteThanks Hilary, now all I need is energy.
DeleteEggrolls in the air fryer. That's a great idea. I've never made them b/c I just don't like to fry stuff.
ReplyDeleteMe too JoJo but everyone tells me they are great in the air fryer.
DeleteThere are always idiots, aren’t there. The only fireworks allowed here now are in officially sanctioned displays and sparklers which have survived for some reason. Too many people were injured - from stupidity largely - but the potential for fires qetting out of control was another factor.
ReplyDeleteYour air fryer experiments are making me wonder if I’d get enough use out of one. Got to get the hang of the Kitchen Maid cooker I bought first though.
There certainly are Helen. I don't know what the law is here, but people certainly let off their own fireworks.
DeleteYes, I am enjoying my air fryer.
