What are you doing to celebrate the fourth?
I doubt we'll be getting outside - at all. Really, there is no doubt involved. We won't be getting outside. Not here in Lubbock. I am not a fan of
sweating "glowing".
I am however sure, that baseball will be involved. What? You say it's played outside? Sure, that is true.. but I do believe that the magic of television will allow me to watch those 9 men chase that ball around in the cool comfort - inside! My beloved Yankees play at 3:10 in Florida and Mr. CJ's Rangers play in my favorite city of Chicago at 7.
And then there will probably be hot dogs involved. Keeping with the feel of baseball....
Of course served in something cute - that is a given.
For that something delectable to go with those dogs!
Sweet potato fries, one hot dog, your choice of whole wheat or white buns. No need for cutlery, but always a need for a bit of added spice - for some folks. Did you see that little bottle of Tabasco?
How do you like your dogs? Chicago style? New York style? simple? with chili? with cheese?
Have you ever tried sweet potato fries? OOh their yummy sweetness is just sooo good.
And here's my tip: Fill a shaker with a mixture of cinnamon and sugar. It's the perfect topping for those fries. Hey, we aren't counting calories today are we?
