Normally I am ecstatic when Friday rolls around. But not this Friday! This Friday is the last full day of my Colorado vacation. As you can imagine, I am a bit disappointed about this. It has been an amazing week so far, and I do not want it to end… at all. Such is life, I guess.
Luckily, we still have the weekend ahead of us. And next week is a four-day work week thanks to the Fourth of July holiday. So I really should not be complaining too much.
Speaking of the Fourth, have you given some thought into what you plan on cookin’ up? Yeah, me neither. At least I hadn’t until I wrote this post! But lucky for you, I have plenty of gluten-free appetizers, side dishes, main dishes, desserts, and drinks coming your way that are perfect for the festivities.

I love the Fourth of July– the fireworks, the food, the celebration everything about it. We generally do a very classic 4th with burgers, potato salad, fruit, and ice pops, but this year I am making this beet salad too– it’s really good, but not sure if my family will eat it… I might be a lone wolf on this one. Thank you so much for the shout out! Have a great 4th.
It sounds like your Fourth is delicious! You can never ever go wrong with the classics!
Pineapple guacamole?! I think my mind is blown!!
