Summer is coming to an end, along with cooking dinner outside. Not only is it cooler, the sun sets earlier and earlier. |
In the Kitchen
We included a few interesting foods, but mostly old favorites.
 |
| An omelet on a Micky Mouse plate; shrimp and rice; Dan Dan noodles; another omelet with salad. |
Indoors and Out
One New Kitchen Item
 |
| New dish-drying mat in a funny color. |
More Cooking and Eating
 |
| Fresh figs. |
 |
My long-time favorite cereal at Elaine’s house in Lafayette. When we came back, Len bought me two boxes of Special K Red Berries. |
 |
A Trader Joe’s croissant and some blueberries.
|
 |
| In Lafayette; Elaine’s delicious Apple Pie. |
 |
| Back home 10 days later: time for more pie by Len. |
 |
| Labor Day Barbecue. |
 |
| Chicken from our grill, which will soon need to be put away for winter. |
 |
| A delicious chicken and olive dish that Carol made for us. |

 |
| Potatoes in olive oil with capers (Pommes à l’huile). |
 |
| Chicken in tahini sauce and a salad with corn, peppers, and lettuce. |
Outside the Kitchen: An Ice Cream in Dexter
 |
| Dexter is the next town from Ann Arbor. It has a perfect small-town Midwest vibe. |
 |
The last Sunday of the month: a beautiful day for a drive and an outdoor ice cream.
