HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!!!

The post from last year’s 4th of July was so special that I decided to run it again. Talk about creativity…Kat really shows us how it is done! So much has happened in the world – and in our country – since last year’s 4th…isn’t it incredible how times have changed. Nevertheless, we celebrate our country’s independence and I wish you…

A HAPPY 4TH OF JULY TO ALL!

A day to remember how lucky we are to live here in the United States of America…and in honor of the day, another look at the amazing flag created by the very talented Kat:FLAG_oA closer look and an explanation:11713926_403336039869651_13309991555360472_oA Mah Jongg – or should I say, a Kat – rendition of a Betsy Ross flag made from the casein blue backs of tiles, red casein tile faces, faces from bone and bamboo tiles and, finally, the stars are bone wind disc indicators. Thanks to Kat for this very special treat!

IT WAS A VERY HAPPY 4TH!

Linda H, one of my ace Mah Jongg students, invited me to join her and her friends up on her beautiful rooftop terrace to celebrate the 4th of July. We enjoyed a delicious and wonderful dinner and a fabulous view of the amazing Macy’s fireworks display. And, to add to the perfection of the evening, guess who was visiting and joined us in the festivities…Johni Levene, Mah Jongg teacher extraordinaire from Los Angeles! A great time was had by all!!!

Before we went over to Linda’s, Johni had a few moments of bonding with Lizzie!IMG_0707

IMG_0708Johni and I made a new group of friends that night and I hope to see them again soon – and ! think I will since they all said they wanted me to teach them how to play Mah Jongg! There were seven of us altogether – here’s a brief glimpse of that gorgeous rooftop and Johni with a big smile (as always!!). IMG_0720And here’s Linda – definitely the hostess with the mostest – as she cuts into her very patriotic – and DELICIOUS – dessert!IMG_0719

I love my “sista” Johni…me and Johni
