Happy 4th or as I would say Juneteenth. There is a movement to get the celebration of Juneteenth to last all the way to Independence Day because we are not all free if everyone is not free. This holiday has always been one that was just for cookouts, I Never felt or lived like this was "my holiday" same with Thanksgiving which I mildly tolerate. So, on this day I do what we always do, we eat, I have some good drinks and wear something cute and watch some fireworks. On this day...we really need to think about what Independence means in the United States, in the African Diaspora, and within the world as we well know many many people are still not free.

Oysters to go from Boat Run Oyster Co. |
We picked up two dozen oysters at 1.10$ and a shucking knife for 21.00$.The oysters were from Cedar Key, Florida (Local to me).
Scallions, black peppercorn, olive oil, and lemon |
Sriracha with jalapeño |
Cucumber with lemon juice |
Flat parsley, Black peppercorn, olive oil, and lemon |
Chimichuri with Sriacha and a drop of lemon juice |
For the second part of dinner I had an idea from a photo I saw on Instagram for Chimmichuri grilled steak. We have filet here with homemade Chimmichurri sauce and Rosemary to garnish.
