I have been in the U.S for eight months. So it's the first time I heard about the Fourth of July. I did some research one line, and I found out that " In the United States, Independence day, commonly known as the Fourth of July , is a federal holiday commemorating adoption of the Declaration of Independence in July 4,1776, declaring the independence from Kingdom of Great Britain. Independence day is commonly associated with fireworks, parades, barbecues, carnivals, fairs, picnics, concerts, baseball games, political speeches and ceremonies, and various other public and private events celebrating the history, government, and traditions of United States. Independence day is the national day of the United States". From wikipedia.
Normally, holidays means party, barbecue, enjoying a day with the family... But for me it's the opposite. It means more work. Because I work in bakery as a cake decorator. In a normal days I work five to eight hours, but in "holidays" I work ten to twelve hours. When people celebrate a day as this one, they came to us to get a cake. Which means that I have to make more then usual.

But your cakes are so good! Nicely done on this. I like how you included the research. Now, look at the first sentence in your last paragraph. Do you see anyting wrong with the way you have holidays and mean together there? Say it outloud. Instead of 'in a normal day' say 'on a normal day' and not 'in' holidays, but 'on holidays' Now look at how you used 'came' --don't you want 'come?' Insert that word and see how it sounds there. I think you will like it better. Lastly, you make more cakes 'than' usual.
