Jen Our 4th of July was spent with friends! We had fun swimming and eating festive treats. We didn’t go anywhere to watch fireworks, but some neighbors were shooting them off super late while we were trying to sleep!! Hope you all had a fabulous day, and that your neighbors were more considerate. 😊 Amy For some reason I thought I'd sent my 4th of July recipe and I didn't. My bad!!!! Seriously though, I worked on the 4th and decided to toss some brats into the slow cooker that morning along with sliced onion, sauerkraut and white wine. I know a light beer is the norm but I liked the idea of sweet wine butting up against the intensity of the sauerkraut. It worked out well. I mixed together mayo, chili sauce, ketchup, finely chopped onion, 1 clove garlic and pepper. If you like pickle relish feel free to add that. Oh let the brats cook on low for around 8-9 hours. Turn the oven to 350° smear the spread on some hoagies then drop a couple of slices of Swiss cheese on them add a brat and kraut. Put them on an ungreased baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes until the cheese is lovingly melted. I want my cheese to be melted lovingly. As you can see, Zane in the cafe understands. Nikita
Georgia We really didn't do anything special for the 4th other than take a drive to one of the few National Parks in NM. that we haven't hit yet. The Chaco Culture Historic Center. It was a nice drive until you there and then it's about 12 miles down a beat up dirt road. The ruins are well worth the drive. I could bore you with the details.. Or you can click the link below if you are interested. Drive sucked, crow was cool (he just sat there as I took his picture), ruins pretty amazing.. Chaco Culture National Historic Park Friday I took a stroll through the botanic gardens. All in all it was nice Oh, if anyone asks. I made burgers but forgot to take photos. Hope everyone had a safe 4th as we wait for our next 3 day weekend.
Love Jen and Nikita's family pics. Holidays really are about giving thanks and spending time with loved ones Jen, Amy, Nikita and Georgia
