(Just a teensy belated) Weekend Wishlist - Red, White, and Blue

I feel like I should have had more to say between the last Weekend Wishlist and this one, but I was in bed most of last week with the flu. This time of year is always horrible for me. I've never had a very good immune system, and often get one cold and flu after another. I know better and I really should keep up a regiment of Vitamin C and Echinacea, but I'm slack about it. At least it's orange season, so I try to keep a bunch around the house. And who can say no to fresh oranges. Yum!

Well... it's Fourth of July weekend in the US, and as an expat, I figure I should at least acknowledge it. I'm not particularly patriotic and I don't have any special memories associated with the weekend, but I never would say no to a long weekend and an excuse to bbq with friends. Besides, the colours are still true to my new country's flag, so it makes a nice theme. (Though, Australia feels more green and gold to me, as it should! Those are the sporting colours. :) )
