Happy almost Independence Day and official Toast Tuesday!

4th of July is upon us and it’s time for some fun in the sun, barbecuing, and fireworks! Start your morning off right with this adorable American flag toast! I originally saw this toast idea floating around Pinterest last week and just had to make it. The only problem? I’m deathly allergic to the red & blue ingredients… Booooo (more on the allergy subject later)! I can’t have white toast, no fun! I decided I would make myself a star shaped slice of toast with some PB so I can join in on the fun when I make this for my friends tomorrow. Back to the American flag cuteness, whoever thought of this is a genius. What a cute idea for kids… and adults!

I’ll be taking tomorrow off to celebrate the holiday and I wish everyone a fun and safe 4th of July! Be smart and wear your sunscreen, Skin Cancer does not discriminate.
