 Food celebration for all on Independence Day by: Marlena Spieler
Sunday, June 28, 2009
...The topic was "Celebrating With Food," something I do three times a day, minimum...
...Everyone had a happy memory. I realized that in my lexicon of happy food celebrations, the Fourth of July was tops. It's tops because it is inclusive for all Americans, and leaves no one out for religious reasons. It's a party for all groups; regardless of how long their families have lived in the country, it is a lazy, lovely day.
There are no starched napkins, no sit-down dinners, no formal attire, no one to impress, no opportunity really for pretentiousness. It is utterly democratic - whatever your social class, when July Fourth rolls around you'll probably be lighting a barbecue. It spans all groups, all regions of the country, all ethnic groups.
It's about celebrating our national freedom even through hard times, recession and difficulties. It's about hospitality and sharing and really just having a nice day off, a day to get together and enjoy a barbecue, family, friends and fireworks.... |
