Lets hope this rain stops huh?  I am sooo sick of this weather. My husband (and me when available) have been restoring my car for 3 years. So finally the car is just about done and I can't drive it cause every day has rain, so with any luck this weekend will be nice and I can take her for a ride.

We have some BBQ's to go to so this might be a good thread about things to bring to eat.  I am still on stage 4 so I will bring my own 93% ff burger and maybe whip up some ricotta with splenda and vanilla for a dessert and try and transport some fudgesicles. I will drink a protein shake on the way to arrive hydrated and with some protein. Its going to be hard as my sil and her daughter are amazing bakers. The daughter went to culinary school and is a pastry chef!!!

Well, depending on the weather, we will go to the beach if the sun is out (we go with my bff and her husband and another family) OR we will have a cookout at our house if it's crummy out.

I'm going to make a bean salad I found on eggface's blog.

hi Happy 4th to all!

In Needham the festivities start on the 3rd with Fireworks. Not certain if they will go off due to the weather.  We have a family cookout before, then everyone heads to the fireworks.   The next day is a parade.   My son and I used to march in the parade with the boyscouts but he is isn't a boyscout anymore so I will be a spectator...weather permitting again.
I did book a training session at the gym over the weekend....it will keep me honest in my food choices and exercise!!   
Stay safe everyone...and don' t play with firecrackers!!
