Labor Day is unofficially the end of summer, and Mother Nature gave us a beautiful day to enjoy. Clear skies with a high of 78 degrees. It was nice to turn the air conditioning off and open all the windows. Maybe Mother Nature was trying to make up for the three toronados that touched down in Southeastern Michigan last Thursday, Sept. 3rd. Around 3:00 a.m. there was intense, loud thunder and lightening like I've never seen or heard before, then around 4:30 in the afternoon our cell phones alerted us to take cover for a possible toronade while sirens wailed. The sky was dark and rain came down in torrents but all was well in our neighborhood. We didn't lose power, but over 300,000 residents did and there was lots of damage.
This is the first year we haven't gone to the Romeo Peach Festival on Labor Day in a long time. It was a quiet, leisure day at my house and I worked on my favorite recipes cookbook for Tiffany.
For some Michigan kids, tomorrow will be the first day back to school, and others went back last week. Daughter-in-law Samantha sent pictures of the 'grands' on their first day back last week in Zeeland.

The chef was supposed to send me some food pics to share, but he either forgot or was too busy to take any.
Sign-up has started for the Ladies' Fall Tea at church that will be held on September 26th, so that will keep me occupied.
That's the latest news from my corner of the world, so I'll close this post by saying Take Care, and I hope you had an enjoyable Labor Day!
