Firecracker Martini Recipe for 4th of July
It’s so much fun to gather your friends and celebrate Memorial Day, the 4th of July and even Veteran’s Day (while we don’t really celebrate the passing of our Veterans, I do believe it’s important to honor and commemorate the sacrifices our American soldiers have made over the years!).

Now, I know that some don’t like the idea of “celebrating” Memorial Day, but for myself, as a former Marine wife and Army daughter, I believe in celebrating the lives of the men and women in uniform who have sacrificed their lives for the American ideal and our continuing freedoms.
What better way to pay our respects than by living our lives to the fullest – that is what our good men and women of the armed forces fight for every single day…
