Justin's Five Favorite Days of the Year, Part 2 of 5: Independence Day

In my entire career, I never had to work on the 4th of July. Until this job. And that day is a lot of work. 

That being said, it's also pretty fun. 

I bought cupcakes for the employees. 

My assistant showed me this way of eating cupcakes, something she'd seen a celebrity do, and claims it is the best way to eat them. 

I called her a communist and ate mine the traditional way. 

My guess was that we would serve about 75 meals, but it actually ended up being more. 

I did not have a burger or ribs. I imagine you can guess why. 

Because I wanted a hot dog. 

I turned off Wimbledon to watch the Nathan's Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest. 

Later in the afternoon, I had a second dog. 

I left work around 4:30 and came home to cook my own food. I started by reheating some of the ribs from work. 

Poop Dog had to sit outside because she is annoying when there are ribs being consumed. 

We had a lot of rain in the last week and everything is much more lush than I am used to on 4th of July. 

I also smoked King salmon. 

But mostly I drank Coors Light. 

Although when I ran out of it, I drank a Mountain Beach.
