Independence Day weekend has to include a burger day, today is ours; black bean burgers that is.  Mike, Tracy and Willa are here for a quiet, relaxing afternoon that includes some lake time and a fantastic dinner built around some amazing Tracy-made black bean burgers that Kent expertly grills.  They are fantastic.  I tried my hand at old-school ambrosia, veganized or course.  It is delicious and pretty close to what I remember from MANY years ago.  There is homemade potato salad too of course, some watermelon and dessert bars (key lime and blueberry).  It is a perfect picnic.  The kids head home for some uninterrupted work time and Willa is going to hang out here with Grandpa and Nana for a couple days.  No specific plans just together time.

Oh yeah, we caught part of a neighborhood fireworks display right from camp last night so I got my Holiday fix.  Nice.
