Eat healthy on the 5th.
In 1776 John Adams wrote to his wife Abigail that what we now know as Independence Day should be "celebrated by succeeding generations
as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be commemorated as the
day of deliverance, by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty. It ought
to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns,
bells, bonfires, and illuminations, from one end of this continent to
the other, from this time forward forever more."
Today is a day of "feasting and gladness," )to borrow a quote relating to a Jewish Independence Day from the book of Esther.)
Relax, enjoy the day, thank God for His blessings, and enjoy the cookout!
P.S. And in honor of John Adams....please blow something up...it's what he would have wanted.
