I Like Thursday #8/Happy 4th of July!

I made this little flag quilt years ago. It's sort of faded but I still hang it every 4th of July!

I'l be getting the deck ready soon for our 4th of July feast! It's already hot and muggy out but that's what summer is all about up here in New England! If it gets too hot, we'll probably eat inside. My poor husband will be near the grill most of the day cooking up our dinner. He usually takes another shower before we eat, after the food is cooked!

This is the latest book I'm reading. I like it so far. I'm not that much into it. I track my books on Goodreads. It's a great website for readers. Check it out if you haven't tried it yet.

I have my slab table runner out. It reminds me of spring and summer. This was a fun project a group of us made together. It was Dawn's idea whose been having problems with her blog. She has a new blog called Relaxing Robin if you'd like to follow her. I missed her so much but I'm happy she's back!

Those are my likes for the week! I hope you all enjoy your Fourth of July festivities. I'll be linking over with LeeAnna at Not Afraid of Color if you'd like to see more happy and positive posts.

  1. I like your table runner. I thought your flag was just all pastels (it faded very evenly). Goodreads is great! I love managing my reading through that. :-)

  2. Love that flag with its muted colours and also your spring and summer pinks in your table runner.
    Rosemary, sounds like a wonderful July 4th is happening at your place. Hope it's not too hot and enjoy it all!

    1. Thanks, Jocelyn! I'm hoping for a nice holiday as well. As hot as it is, I don't think we'll be getting any rain which is a good thing!

    1. Thanks, LeeAnna! I like to read the book reviews on Goodreads. I keep track of what books I've read as well as what books I plan on reading. They also have quite a few book giveaways. Happy 4th!!

  4. Just love your flag--the fact that it's faded makes it look so old-timey--just like out 4th of July celebration (with the exception of the fandango in Washington DC today--ugh!!) Hugs, Julierose

    1. Thanks, Julierose! I'm not watching that DC extravaganza either. Not my cup of tea!

    1. We had a great dinner! I think we have enough leftovers for a few days. We ended up eating indoors. It was just too hot to enjoy our meal out there. Hope you had a good holiday too!
