Happy 4th of July

July 4, 2009 by Leslie

My favorite holiday.

On July 4, 1776 the Declaration of Independence was signed declaring independence from Great Britain.

233 years later we celebrate with picnics, barbecues, fireworks and parades. I’ll be making yummy cheeseburgers, sausages and corn on the grill plus an assortment of salads and snacks. And to keep it healthy, fresh lettuce from the garden.

  • The Garden

    Welcome to LadyMin's Place. Gardner, nature lover, bird watcher, citizen scientist, amateur photographer and sometimes geeky person. The garden is in a suburb of Chicago; LadyMin herself is virtually everywhere.
