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).

Bleubeard and I welcome you
Art, including the journey, background techniques, sewing on both paper and fabric, new experiments, photos, failures, and successes will be shared on this site. I have removed my e-mail address until such time as I can get it to work again. Thank you for understanding. You can always leave a note on my blog and I will visit you.
Please check out my Previous Collaborations link above to see what projects I have been involved in over the past 12 years. Current and ongoing projects only are shown below.
Occasionally, Silent Sunday will showcase photos of my home, neighborhood, or community. A picture is often worth a thousand words.
Feelfree to drop by every second Thursday of the month for my Second Thursday Tutorials. They are interspersed with my other Tutorials found at the link page above.
Click on any lesson you might have missed or want to review
Click on the above image daily and help feed hungry dogs and cats. You can donate cat litter, too. You simply answer two questions (one about cats and one about dogs), and whether your answer is correct or not, you have just donated kibble to help feed both shelter animals and those in need.
I will create the art, critique things I feel are important, and put pen (and sometimes glue) to paper, or fingers to keys, while Bleubeard will mostly watch, supervise, or sleep.

That looks delicious! The grape juice sounds good. I'm amazed at the size of the croissants.
Happy T-Day,
Lisca
We had potato salad, too. I love avocado. Nice meal, Elizabeth. Happy T Day.
...I had chicken, sweet potato and a couple of water on the rocks!
