HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY marzipanlings!!
I sure hope that you are taking the day off, kicking back, eating cheeseburgers or, ahem, veggie burgers, drinking frosty beverages, and watching the fireworks with loved ones. Or, if like me, you are working today, you are making a small fortune off of people who want to pay you to serve them aforementioned frosty beverages on their days off. A girl can dream right?
Regardless, I hope you are feeling relaxed and celebratory. And what better way to celebrate than kicking of the festivities with some fantastic body positive internet finds??
