Happy Fourth of July!!!

Every year around the 4th of July, a realtor who lives in the neighborhood decorates our street with little flags. The entire street is lined with them.......each house has one by the driveway. It's such a simple thing, but it makes me smile, and I look forward to it every year!


Red velvet cookies with patriotic colored sprinkles also make me smile! I usually make these around Christmas, but when I saw red, white, and blue sprinkles, I figured a summer batch was in order.


And lastly, a few weeks ago at a yard sale, I spotted this baby. I just had to have it.

Happy Fourth of July!
