Hi @Gill-b thanks for the happy 4th greeting! You're welcome to join in here any time.

Yes, just got done a bit ago. They're an outside HR company so at least my info is being forwarded to the company. First step done.

That's one step behind you, now you can relax a bit.

I think a nap is in my future. I slept terrible last night and was on pins and needles all morning. I'm hoping something to eat and a little more coffee will help perk me up.

A snack then a nap in front of the a/c should set you right.

Food prep for the 4th is almost done.

Apple crisp made last week & in the freezer to warm up tomorrow
Ribs made yesterday
Cole slaw made yesterday
Beans simmering on the stove now
Eggs are hard boiled & just need to "devil" them

DH got to pick all his favorites. Once this is all pulled together, I won't have to cook for at least 3 days. win-win!

That all sounds delisherous Debby! I don't know what we're doing yet, it's terrible hot here. I'm thinking ice cream for dinner.

Ice cream is always the answer to what's for dinner Do you make your own?

We try to keep ice cream at a minimum but I've been eyeballing one of these little makers from Dash (either the single serve mug or the pint one):

We have made the no churn kind before, but no we just buy it. It has been years since we made it in a real churn before!

Making is just too much work when it's this hot outside, I get super lazy. Those gadgets looks pretty neat though, let me know if you get one and how you like it!
