One of the highlights living in Ukraine is the Embassy's 4th of July picnic. Being back in the States, we missed it this year. But there was something great about celebrating the holiday back in the land of the brave.
We went simple this year -- cooking a gigantic meal, praying for the troops and singing patriotic songs. We wanted to introduce the boys to our favorite reactionary Cold War movie, Red Dawn, but it was rented out. Next year.
I made a killer tiramisu for dessert. Which is braggable.
