With fireworks. First there was a round of severe thunderstorm warnings this afternoon, complete with lots of thunder, and now after dark someone has decided to start celebrating Independence Day a week early.

It's our 26th anniversary together, but we celebrated by gardening and making dinner at home. These days who can afford to go out? Well, as it happened, I had a pair of filet mignon in the deep freeze, and I got a bottle of South Australian shiraz at the grocery this morning. We had the steaks done perfectly over charcoal, with tossed salad, asparagus, and parsley potatoes. (Or rather cilantro potatoes. ;p) Gary got a pint of home grown strawberries from our friend Rebecca yesterday, so dessert (in a few minutes) will be just a little scoop of ice cream with really ripe strawberries over it.

Tomorrow he has a shape note singing in the afternoon, and I'll be joining Toni for an all day historic demo to show spinning and hand knitting. If the weather behaves I expect it will be fun, but I need to remember to take some insect repellent. The mosquitos have been fierce around here lately.
