The 4th of July


No parade for me tomorrow morning--I'll be hunkered down with my coffee watching the first stage of le Tour de France live from Monaco. After lazing by the pool a bit and whipping up a batch of my "world famous" oatmeal chocolate chip cookies, we'll be off to our friends' historic house near the Square for their annual barbeque and fireworks bash.


The party is not over until the pub tub is empty. They renovated their bathroom and had the big old cast iron tub in the backyard waiting for disposal when they decided to fill it with ice and beer for the party. So the pub tub was born, and is an integral part of the Independence Day celebration. I'm guessing it's not going anywhere now.
Enjoy the holiday!

Oh, I'm jealous. I think I need one of those pub tubs out by the pool. I'm going to add it to the list of things I expect my husband to OK the purchase of!
