Happy 4th of July!

Happy 4th of July!, originally uploaded by Boots in the Oven.

Have we mentioned our small kitchen?

I hope everyone is enjoying their 4th of July celebrations! We've been up preparing since about 9 this morning. I'm surrounded by rising hamburger buns, freshly made pimento cheese, a large pile of caramelized onions, and what's rapidly beginning to look like homemade ketchup!

That's not to mention the croissants we bought for hot dogs, the burgers being made at our friend's house, the homemade pickles and watermelon salad K's working on, and of course the copious roses and beers and Topochicos for the drinking.  Phew.

Happy Independence Day! I have to go help before the kitchen devolves into further chaos.

Ha! I wouldn't say we NORMALLY make our own hamburger buns, but the Mr. saw this recipe in last month's Gourmet and just had to try it. They turned out pretty well!
