Happy 4th of July!

56th Annual Detroit Fireworks Show

To our U.S. readers: Happy Independence Day!  For our readers outside the U.S.: Happy Friday!

We will be light on posting today so our writers (Melissa, Suzy, Mary, Lauren and our new recapper crew – Gina, Cecile, Kara, Geoff and Bonnie) can crawl out of their reality TV bunkers, unglue their fingers from their laptop keyboards, and peel their eyes off the television for a couple of hours.  We hope they'll get some fresh air, enjoy a BBQ, maybe spend a few moments getting reacquainted with their family members and watch some explosions in the sky (rather than on TV between some catty reality stars). 😉

If you find yourself hanging out on Reality Tea today, we're happy to have you.  If you're looking for some excitement (other than the World Cup matches today!), we’ve compiled a list of some of our favorite recent articles and photo galleries for your browsing pleasure.  Enjoy!  And have a happy and safe 4th of July.

Start here: Dos and Don'ts of Participation
