Labor Day:  a day to celebrate all of the hard workers across the US for their contributions to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of their country.

Held on September 1^st and marked by parades and fireworks in some cities, Labor Day, has come to be a symbolic end of summer.  A way to go out with a bang! 

 

And by marking the end of summer, it also marks the beginning of the NFL and college football seasons.  But before we begin tailgating, let’s celebrate this Labor Day by propping our feet up and enjoying the last warm evenings of the season.  We deserve it!  We’ve worked hard this year!

 

Memorial Day

Memorial Day is an important holiday to many Americans.  It is a day dedicated to remembering our soldiers who died to protect our freedoms.  Everybody celebrates a little differently but most people go to cemeteries to place American flags at the graves.

Need to buy a flag?

Another popular way to celebrate Memorial Day is to have a barbeque.  No barbeque is complete without some party decorations, food, family, and friends.  We can help provide the decorations or for the DIY people out there, we have the supplies to make your own decorations.

Are you looking for a wreath to hang on your door?  Make your own or buy one of ours.

 

 

 And of course, you can't forget the food.  Everybody has their own secret BBQ recipe but my favorite is Beer Burgers.  A simple recipe with things you have just laying around your house.

1. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
2. Mix the ground beef, onion, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Mix in the beer until absorbed by the meat mixture. Form into patties.
