The time has come for me to put The Maverick Observer website on a brief hiatus through the end of the year. I believe we are living in a time of history in the United States which is unprecedented. The assault on individual freedoms has never ever been this egregious unless you were a prisoner of war, black, American Indian, or Japanese American during World War II.

This patriotic Flag Fruit Pizza is a family favorite recipe! It is incredibly delicious and gets the family involved.

These Star Spangled Skewers are festive and fun for your 4th of July parties and get-togethers! They are a healthier treat option or snack that everyone will love. Simply using a star cookie cutter makes watermelon slices the star of your spread. Stack blueberries and mini marshmallows on a medium skewer and top with a star! This is a great kid-friendly recipe that they will love to help with!
