a Grand 4th of July







To celebrate the Fourth, we headed to the 'Grand Canyon of the East'
to enjoy the great hiking, views, and {for some of us} swimming...and,
a picnic lunch of course.  I made up a bunch of strawberry
hand pies from this recipe, and as it states, 'they are the best
pies for a picnic'.
The only disappointment was not being able to stay at
the Glen Iris...it's lovely!
Maybe someday :)

  1. Thank you dear "friend", can I call you that even though we have never met? I have knit your waffle dishcloth so I think that qualifies :-)
    Thank you for your daily slice of beauty this side of Heaven.

  3. I was going to ask if it was THAT canyon then I realised it was too green. Stunning.

  4. That whole setting looks gorgeous! I'm glad you tried that CL recipe - I was toying with the idea - your endorsement, for me, is better than the GH seal of approval. =)

    1. I made a double batch and they were gobbled up--I think you'll like them. I will definitely be trying them with other fruits, like peach...Deb

  6. Table Rock is our favorite picnic area there. It is where we meet the "fam" every father's day.
