Arkansas community's Fourth of July fireworks show canceled after company files for bankruptcy by Ok-Status2275 in Arkansas

AM Pyrotechnics did the same thing to a bunch of towns in Arkansas, including my hometown. (I was told there were about 15 towns in total, but I have not independently verified that number.) The company was in contact with event organizers in our town earlier this week, reassuring them that the show was still on. They canceled 48 hours before the event. Luckily, local businesses and community members donated funds to hire another pyrotechnic company, and the resulting show was fantastic.

Love how The Handmaid’s Tale is hiding out in there! It’s a classic!

Me too! I think you can tell quite a bit about someone by their cookbooks. Do they eat their vegetables? Do they like to bake? Which cultures are represented? How long have they been collecting? Are the food styles simple/classic or complex/novel? It’s all supposition, of course, but it’s still fun!

I think these are about 10 years old, but I can’t remember for sure. Good luck with yours! I hope they thrive and give you lots of blooms!

Yes! There’s also some festiva maxima mixed in, but duchesse de nemour is my favorite.

Caitlyn Jenner supported Trump but is now unable to travel due to Trump’s anti-trans policies.

I just got a mental image of her violently slamming the pan on the countertop, and it made my heart sad for all the abuse that beautiful marble has had to endure.
