Can you really be called an American if you aren’t wearing red, white and blue on the 4th of July? Most of us have some sort of apparel with the American flag on it, but to me it always seems odds to wear these items if it’s not Independence Day. In this post I am sharing some 4th of July outfits that can be worn all summer.

Morel Mushrooms: Finding and Frying
In my family it is a tradition to go mushroom hunting every spring, specifically, morel mushroom hunting. These tasty mushrooms can be found in the forests of Iowa and I would consider them to be a delicacy in the area.

Looks for Valentine’s Day
Remember in elementary school when you would pass out Valentine cards to all your classmates? I always looked forward to this because it allowed me to show off my creative abilities when it came to designing my Valentine’s Day box.

I would also spend hours deciding who would get which Valentine card. I had Disney princess cards one year and I remember thinking that the people I liked would get the Ariel, Jasmine and…

Not only does it need to be functional but it also needs to be an expression of you visually. Starting in third grade I was given an “agenda” (aka a planner) for the entire school year. My class was required to write down our homework assignments every day. I remember our teacher checking to see if we had filled everything out at the end of the week. If we had, sometimes she would star our page – I of course always…
