I love it when people around me become sensitive about the things they say for fear of offending (coming from a different country, different culture and all). Just the other day, i interrupted a conversation between my boss and Lauren. I briefly caught a snippet of it and chirped, "So what's going on this weekend?"
My boss, B, turned around, uncertainty flickered across his face for a split second, before answering in absolute seriousness, "Oh Chewy, this weekend is our Independence Day, we call it the Fourth of July." I mean, absolute seriousness.
Lauren and I burst into laughter.
"Oh B, I think she knows what 4th of July is."
Thank you for treading so lightly on thin ice around me, but really, i do appreciate it. *chuckles*
And i went to the new Jo-Ann Fabrics in Mooresville yesterday!!! I didn't buy anything, just walked around the store and gaped and gawked (and drooled a little). They have a HUGE selection of fabrics!!!
But before I go, let me share a cute racer shorts for kids tutorial that I found over at Made. I shall attempt it, and make some cute shorts for the summer! LOVELOVELOVE!
Thank you for the tutorial Dana!!!
HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!!
Getting ready for the fireworks tonight!!!

Happy 4th of July :) ! Super cute shorts!
ReplyDeleteFireworks! That's how 4th is celebrated. Is it done by the soldiers like in Singapore or can anyone just purchase fireworks and light them up?

ReplyDeletewell, you can buy them but they're not very good ones. it depends on where you're at. we watched fireworks organized by the town, and they were pretty good!
