I enjoy the view but I am not yet going out of the house. |
In My Kitchen: August 2025
It’s been a difficult month as I started it with a major medical procedure and I am still recovering. All the cooking in my kitchen was done by Len, Evelyn, Tom, and Alice. Obviously this means we ate many delicious breakfasts, lunches and dinners. And although I am getting better, I still don’t have the strength to comment on other blogs. I have enjoyed some of the posts by Deb Nance and a few others. I’ll be back!

| One example of Len’s great cooking: French toast on the griddle. |

| Dinner: French toast, sautéed apples and nectarines, maple syrup. |

Peaches in Season
 |
Our neighbor Mary brought us a beautiful basket of peaches from South Haven, MI.
We love peaches! |
 |
Evelyn and Tom were at Costco while Mary was bringing us the peaches.
We lived up to the challenge: not one peach wasted! |

Late-August Reading
 |
All the gods became very modern for this detailed story.
Nice book but it should be half as long! |
 |
The plot of this book is based on real events that took place in Ann Arbor years ago.
The author is a good writer but not very good at inventing a plot. |
 |
Reading now: Katabasis, brand new novel from R.F.Kuang.
After 100 pages: disappointed. |

Katabasis is on its way to me in our county library system, and I have been looking forward to it. I hope it doesn't disappoint me. I enjoyed Babel a lot, but book one of Poppy War was extremely violent, and, after some consideration, I've decided to skip the rest of the series.
All that good food should accelerate your healing, I think! I'm sending lots of good thoughts your way, Mae.
Best wishes for a complete and rapid recovery.
