Five for Friday – 4th of July
Have you got some fun 4th of July plans this weekend? We’ve got some sparklers and we’re ready to celebrate, even in Romania!
This week’s ‘Five for Friday’ has got some 4th of July ideas to brighten your holiday!
1. CARE PACKAGES
This Fourth of July, one activity you and your family could do together is to create a care package for members of the military. UPS offers free kits and you can see a list of things to include via organizations like Soldier’s Angels.
2. FESTIVE DESSERTS
If you don’t have a lot of time, but you still want your BBQ or get-together to have a fun patriotic theme while still being delicious, here are some quick and easy dessert ideas. We’ve made the flag fruit pizza one year for a team who was here during 4th of July, and this year we are going to try the fireworks pudding cookies. Let us know if you try one!
