I love celebrations. Life just wouldn’t be the same without them. Any excuse to celebrate, I take full advantage of- the small, the big, and everything in between. I mean, even the Bible says to celebrate in Romans 12:15 “Celebrate with those who celebrate…”
So, thank you, America, for having a birthday worth celebrating! Am I right?!
In my opinion, 4th of July is one of the most festive American holidays. Red, white, & blue everything, fun in the sun, good food and drinks, and great company. My favorite way to spend the 4th of July holiday is near water, preferably on the lake. And I’m stoked to be doing just that this year! What is your favorite way to celebrate America?
Holidays and celebrations, like the 4th of July, also means party food. And, a lot of it! It’s no secret that party food often doesn’t equate to nutrient-dense, healthy food. So, I created a Paleo recipe round-up for your 4th of July celebrations. While these may not be the healthiest options, they are much better than most!
