For the first time in 503 menus I didn’t publish my weekly menu post on a Sunday. It was the 15th anniversary of September 11 and it just didn’t feel right. Instead I read and pondered and talked with friends and savored a day with family. And now it’s September 12 and I’m ready to start the week.

I have a couple repeats from last week. I know that I cooked last week, so not sure what happened there!
