INDEPENDENCE DAY DELIGHTS

One of my favorite things about the summertime is being able to relax on our deck with great food and drinks. In honor of this sunny (and unbelievably hot) Fourth of July, here is a compilation of things I would love to see on the patio table throughout the day.  The first two pictures are from the trip we were lucky enough to take to Paris last summer, and are featured in my husband’s awesome food blog, adayinthebite.com!  Happy Birthday, America!
