A Southern Life

Southern Fireworks

It is that time of year. Hear all of the snap, crackle and pops? We just had our fabulous Red, White and Blue Festival here. Here are some pics from the event (thank you to Christy Keirn for some of the great pics – we forgot to put a card in our camera. Video of fireworks were taken from our phone!).

Monkeys on doggies!

Are they adorable or what?
Cuteness with a sunset!
A young Southern Belle on a pony.
My friend Kim's little ones – Jack and Trevie looking adorable!

And then . . . there were the fireworks!

Some fun for Outdoor Wednesday!

Today’s Lagniappe: Cucumber Tip
Thanks to Wehoney on the Southern Living board for this great tip!

Cut a small piece off the end of the cucumber, and then rub it on the cut end, cut sides together, until a foam appears…rinse it off, with the cut end facing downward, repeat on the other end…this is suppose to take the gas out of the cucumbers.

Is that a great tip or what???

    Hey I know this is off topic but I was wondering if you knew of any widgets I could add to my blog that automatically tweet my newest twitter updates. I’ve been looking for a plug-in like this for quite some time and was hoping maybe you would have some experience with something like this. Please let me know if you run into anything. I truly enjoy reading your blog and I look forward to your new updates.

    What i do not realize is in fact how you are not actually a lot more smartly-favored than you may be right now. You’re very intelligent. You realize thus significantly when it comes to this subject, made me personally believe it from numerous various angles. Its like women and men don’t seem to be involved until it is one thing to accomplish with Girl gaga! Your own stuffs excellent. At all times deal with it up!

    Hi, I believe your website could possibly be having web browser compatibility issues. Whenever I look at your site in Safari, it looks fine but when opening in Internet Explorer, it’s got some overlapping issues. I just wanted to give you a quick heads up! Other than that, excellent blog!
