As an expression of love for my country, I do try to wear red, white, and blue on Independence Day and, in fact, for the entire holiday weekend.  This causes some wardrobe challenges for obvious reasons.  And it's probably more than a bit hokey.

However, I did not plan on coordinating my food choices for the weekend with my sartorial selections!  So, when I opened the lovely yogurt parfait that I made to take to Starbucks for breakfast on Saturday morning, I was delighted and surprised to note its appropriate color scheme (and promptly posted a picture memorializing the same to Facebook).  I include the picture above.

Happy Fourth of July to one and all.  Regardless of whether you are as crazy as I am about celebrating with the colors of the day, I wish you a safe and pleasant holiday.  Happy Birthday, U.S.A.!
