In order to celebrate, we're going to fill our bellies with grilled delights, pack in some sweet goodies, and finish it off with a fireworks show, because we're Americans dammit, and we know a little somethin' about gettin' fat and lightin' fires. Maybe that's just the south; I don't know. What I do know is that this is the cutest cake, and I can't wait to eat it.
It's a cake that looks like a hamburger? Get it? I know we're bombarded with those cake shows with famous decorators that make way cooler desserts, but I have to give kudos to my local Food Lion for brightening my day for under 7$. After the store, Trevor and I picked up some fireworks.
They were buy one get one free, so I went all out. Hopefully no one (Trevor) will lose a finger accidentally or otherwise (Victoria). The baby will probably spend the evening in her room crying/sleeping. I'm sure I'll have pics of the terrified faces to post tomorrow. Until then, Happy Birthday, America. You don't look a day over 200.
