Hi everybody!

I'm back from my most recent trip from Europe, just in time for 4th of July weekend! I'll likely be spending most of it recovering from jetlag and harassing my cat (who seems indifferent to our return), but have some barbecue and beer for me, okay?

Hope you enjoy this  4th of July menu I've curated below:

This Week's Menu

(yeah, living the raw deal — three course meal!)

STARTER

keeping your maiden name is the current trend.

... this is how we do it ...

• Five common homemade ice cream issues and how to fix them. Yes and yes.

... our house is a very, very, very fine house ...

• Check out this pretty neat infographic of how American homes have evolved stylistically throughout the years. I wonder what will be the defining style of the 2010s?

... take me on a trip i'd like to go someday ...

• I'd like to visit all the farmers markets on this list, especially since I can attest to the wonder of both the San Francisco Ferry Building and the Portland State University markets.

... questions of science, science and progress ...

• Cat videos are good for you. It's science.

Have a good weekend, folks! Don't forget to comment with any links, gifs, or recipes I might have missed!
