Happy, happy 4th of July!!

An American flag cake for July 4th is a tradition in our family.


If our crowd that day is large, we do a double-layer, and if it’s small, we stick with just one.

4th of july flag cake
Cool whip icing,

blueberry stars,

and strawberry stripes. . .

It’s Independence Day bliss.

Thanks for subscribing to teachmama! Have a good one!

Had THE BEST dinner at Olneyโ€™s newest restaurant, @saltvinemd โ€”

Our hostesses were kind and welcoming, our server was THE BEST, and food was delivered to our table by SUPER food runners. 

Everything we ordered we LOVED. Cannot wait to return.

I started my teaching career at @hcpss_wlhs โ€” a place packed with really awesome educatorsโ€” and @eric.ebersole.for.maryland was one of them!

LOOK at us now! Delegate Ebersole is moving mountains in Annapolis! 

It was so cool to run into my friend while Iโ€™m here with @momsdemand โค๏ธโ™ฅ๏ธ 

Want to get involved? YOU NEED TO. 

Please text FED UP to 644-33 to find an event near you and make your voice heard!
