Happy Fourth everyone!
I am spending yet another Independence Day away from the US. Here in Amsterdam you would never know a holiday of such magnitude was happening anywhere, but Laurel, Miranda, Lee and I are celebrating our own way.
Thanfully we have beautiful weather today. Miranda wants to make Mojitos and sit outside. Laurel wants chicken and dumplings. Lee wants cake.
The day started with an epic walking adventure to Dam square for Miranda and I. We were on a pilgrimage to the largest Albert Heijn in the Netherlands, which was a pretty good size on par with an American grocery store. A smaller one of course. Think old IGA size. We had some troubling acquiring confectioner's sugar and mojito supplies, but we managed to scrounge up everything we needed to make this fourth fabulous. We also got to see Darth Vader on the Dam...always a sight to see.
Miranda make homemade tomato soup for lunch and Laurel and I decorated a flag cake seen above. More updated as we continue celebrating..
Hope everyone is having a fun time at home!!
