HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY

We live in a day of much cynicism and disillusionment. This is understandable to most of us. Having said that, I do want to say that, in spite of the hideous Lee Greenwood rendition, I am pround to be an American where for most part I know that I am free. I believe that the biggest threat and fear to our country is not from terrorists or outside entities but from within. It is up to us as citizens to do all that we can to keep our country free from bigotry, hatred and strife. We each have to stay vigilant and be passionate about protecting our freedoms as set forth in the Constitution of the United States of America and the Bill of Rights.

I wish for you a happy holiday filled with all that you enjoy. Mine will consist of family, swimming, eating, making some more homemade ice cream now that I have the hang of it, and enjoying my freedom to do all of these things. God bless America, my home sweet home.

    Pistachio is my favorite, made with Jello instant pudding. I'm going to go be free! (at least until I go brassiere shopping)

    Just a quick note to you. First, I hope that you enjoy your holiday with family. If you can, give them our love from Indiana. Second, I don't know if you'd be interested, but I have a very simple, delicious recipe for vanilla ice cream that does not need cooking. I would be happy to share it.

    Also, I, too, have began a blog. Don't know that it will be interesting, but I will forward the address to you if you'd like to peek into my little window on the world.

    Have a happy 4th!

    Love you!
    Teresa
