Red, White, and Blue Brunch

Happy 4th everyone! The weather in Milwaukee is hot and muggy but the sky is clear, so bring on the fireworks. We're passing the afternoon by grilling out and having some Red, White, and Blue Ribbon beer.

This morning I made (a pretty easy) brunch with a "red, white, and blue" theme: Baby green salad with strawberries, blue cheese, and raspberry balsamic vinegar; Mixed berry muffins (a modified recipe from Barefoot Contessa; Watermelon; Bacon and country sausage. Did you guys make any "red, white, and blue" recipes today, too? Do tell.

Happy 4th of July weekend

I'll be doing some posting over the weekend and a LOT of chillaxin' in the backyard. Hope you have a good weekend, too!
