Have a Wicked Happy 4th of July

by Julie, dealing with rain and heat in Somerville, but still loving the 4th

My two favorite holidays have always been the 4th of July and Thanksgiving. They are about food, friends/family and fun. As I’ve gotten older, both days have taken on a bit of a more somber tone. The meaning of the holidays require some thought. I miss people who aren’t here any more to celebrate with me. Sometimes it takes a bit more effort to embrace the fun. Nevertheless, I persist.

To those who celebrate, have a wicked wonderful 4th of July. To those who don’t, do something fun today.
