My girlies made this beautiful and tasty treat to commemorate the holiday today. Help yourselves!
God Bless The USA

If tomorrow all the things were gone,
I'd worked for all my life.
And I had to start again,
with just my children and my wife.

I'd thank my lucky stars,
to be livin here today.
‘Cause the flag still stands for freedom,
and they can't take that away.

And I'm proud to be an American,

I'll be back tomorrow to tell you all about this weeks goings on at the cottage. Think - front door; texture on the walls and cabinet installation. Yippee.

I like that song too!!! And I love that dessert!! My sister made that last year!! Hope you had a great day!
Oh-how I adore that cake. I usually make one of those for the 4th of July. Just decadent,isn't it? Love that old Lee Greenwood song-always brings a tear to my eye to hear it...but then I tear up over The Star Spangled Banner too-lol Anxious to see your updates this coming week. I met Laurie (over at Heaven's Walk) through your blog-We (she and I) have decided that the three of us need to sit down with a nice glass of wine and talk. I get to go first because it was MY idea!
