Please join me today at my dining room table and allow me to show you my July 4th meal.
Three cheers for the red, white, and blue.
These tea light candles are specifically for today.
My foodie friend, Sally, took me to Sam's on the 3rd. She has a card. I do not, but can go as her guest. I bought a package of four croissants, so there will be more I will share in the future. I also got a whole cooked chicken (Sam's loss leader) for $4.98 USD.
In case you aren't familiar with Sam's, it's WalMart's wholesale club, similar to Costco.
Before we go further, this is another item I purchased at Sam's. There were 48 boxes of juice and juice blends. There was 100% pure orange, orange-tangerine, apple, and pineapple. The blends included grape, kiwi-strawberry, and several others. I chose grape because it was closest to blue.
I had a mess when I tried to cut the avocado. which wasn't ripe enough.
I made potato salad that was loaded
with extra fresh dill from my herb garden.
I cut thin slices of chicken breast and placed them inside the croissant.
One final look at my patriotic July 4th meal and drink before I met friends later for fireworks.
I've shown you mine, now it's time to share your own drink
related post. It can be
photos, a place you visited, movies, postcards, books, sketches, mixed
media, drawings, paintings, tags, scrapbooking, or other art that is
digital, hybrid, or traditional, as long as it in some way relates back
to a drink, any drink. Regardless,
please share below and Bleubeard and I will gladly visit, as will other T
participants. Please link only your T post and not your
blog in general. Bleubeard would like to remind you that old
photos are acceptable because they may be taken
any time, not just on Tuesday and not just this year.
Please note! Next Tuesday, T Stands For Tuesday turns 13. Time to put on your birthday hats and celebrate.
I also went to Sam's Club on the third. You found some tasty treats. Those croissants look good. And I like your little candles. I think you had a good celebratory dinner...and it was fancier than mine. I hope you have a lovely T day. hugs-Erika
Oh, dear host... tell me of avocado -drama.... Germany, do I have to say more?! Unripe or foul, you chose... but hmmmm.... croissant we can! Likely I´ll hop on for one soon! (up at night, thanks to my back).
I love croissants! And loss leaders! I mentioned on your comment to go ahead and use Heather's write-up. I can share some other amazing writers like her, if you wish. Some American, some Canadian.
Looks nice dear Elizabeth, but I must confess, I don´t live avocados. But the grape- juice I suppose is delicious. Have a good time and all the best Violetta
This looks very good Elizabeth. Club crackers and avocado, can't go wrong with that. The t candles are perfect. Hope you are well and have a nice day today.
Your thoughts are very important to Bleubeard and me. I appreciate it when you care enough to stop by and even more when you leave a short message letting me know you were here.
I don't want to ever turn on comment moderation, so when I find comments that don't relate to my blog content, your comment will immediately be deleted.
That looks delicious! The grape juice sounds good. I'm amazed at the size of the croissants.
ReplyDeleteHappy T-Day,

We had potato salad, too. I love avocado. Nice meal, Elizabeth. Happy T Day.

ReplyDeleteYour meal looks so yummy. I love croissants especially used as a sandwich vehicle. Happy T Day
ReplyDeleteAvocados can be frustrating but they are SO good! Croissants are the best.
