4th of July

The 4th has come and gone. We gave thanks as a nation to all of the troops yesterday, today, and tomorrow that have preserved our freedoms. I thank you all! As a nation, most of us anyway, did it as best we could; by cooking a small feast and setting fire to several hundred dollars worth of powder and paper. I don't have any photos of fireworks... I didn't even have fireworks... I watched the race and listened to others. However, I do have photos of the food-- surely you aren't surprised. ;)

This is called Watermelon Pork Loin with Watermelon Salsa. Yep... that's what I said. It was absolutely delicious too. That sides weren't so bad either... :)

After the rub...

Dinner...


We served it with Sweet Potato Salad




Grilled Corn and Avocado Salad


It was one of the most colorful plates I have ever put on the table... judging by the silence it was pretty tasty too. :)
