Happy Fourth!
The ribs are on the smoker,... two hours down and about two more to go. Tried something a little different from what I initially planned with them: removed the membrane then cider vinegar rubdown followed by liberal salt and pepper then a light coating of yellow mustard followed with a brushing of honey and brown sugar. Cooking low and slow with Mesquite chips.
And so far we have gone through a gallon of sweet tea with another gallon ready to consume!

A lovely reminder of our freedom!

... all those wonderful recipes make me want to cook again for someone. Being widowed isn't any fun, and one does NOT cook for one, but I enjoy looking at the recipes anyway. :-)

This dessert looks so beautiful...just perfect for July 4th! I love strawberry shortcake, and the addition of the blueberries makes such a gorgeous presentation.

Omi, I know what you mean about cooking for one. A lot of times I just nibble all day instead of cooking a real meal. I've found that cooking for neighbors and friends can also be fun and of course they love it! :-)

It looks beautiful and delicious! Hope you had a happy 4th!

Hello Omi - First let me say that I'm so sorry for your loss. I don't believe that human beings are meant to be alone. I spent decades cooking for one, which is why I rarely cooked. It's just not that inspiring. I hope that you are able to find friends and family with whom to share the cooking and enjoying of meals.
