My 4th involved meeting my oldest daughter on a rooftop bar to watch the fireworks, eat tapas and give her new boyfriend a third chance to impress me. Evidently our rooftop faced the wrong direction, the food was awful and ridiculously expensive, and the boyfriend struck out. :D I'm envious of your food, friends and fireworks. Oh the joys of parenting adult children.Tamihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16094928747500699123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7605456781483914021.post-26320124043185808892015-07-07T16:12:10.018-05:002015-07-07T16:12:10.018-05:00Sounds like you had a nice holiday weekend--except...Sounds like you had a nice holiday weekend--except for maybe the near firework mishap!

Just a half hour. And I was just lost! I had no idea what time it was and nothing to do with myself while I waited. Because, of course, that was the time I didn't have a book in my purse!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05554217416500328610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7605456781483914021.post-15278815889196605102015-07-06T21:10:04.773-05:002015-07-06T21:10:04.773-05:00We had soooo many leftovers!

In my defense, I had no idea how many a recipe would actually feed of the shrimp boil. Next time I won't make nearly as much. But I don't I'll be cutting back on desserts!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05554217416500328610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7605456781483914021.post-35609471889134658802015-07-06T21:08:44.116-05:002015-07-06T21:08:44.116-05:00I swear I'm going to take a Friday off one of ...I swear I'm going to take a Friday off one of these days without telling anyone so no one can pop up with some plan for me that was not what I thought I was going to do with a day off!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05554217416500328610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7605456781483914021.post-81602593851902389652015-07-06T21:08:06.579-05:002015-07-06T21:08:06.579-05:00When I jumped up to run, it flew off my lap.

I was all ready to go back from around the corner just to check out my phone even while the firework was still shooting up the driveway!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05554217416500328610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7605456781483914021.post-64418683387998250812015-07-06T21:06:38.391-05:002015-07-06T21:06:38.391-05:00It was great fun but I need three more days off to...It was great fun but I need three more days off to recover!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05554217416500328610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7605456781483914021.post-58518197061307736562015-07-06T19:56:59.639-05:002015-07-06T19:56:59.639-05:00Sounds like a great 4th!

Glad the fireworks incident ended up being not a big deal but I can imagine it was startling!

I try not to waste food but when you are hungry from skipping lunch, your eyes get food happy and I always end up preparing way, way too much. Even with me halving it we STILL have leftovers for my lunch. <br /><br />I am surprised we had fireworks at all since we are in a severe drought and the hillsides are just waiting to up. Last year the helicopters flew over to tell people that it was illegal but this year... not a copter in sight. My one neighbor had some professional grade stuff. It was like Disneyland in my back yard.
