Since Lydia is studying culinary arts, I thought it would be fun if she cooked a meal for us before going to her last work camp for the summer – to Colorado – and then home to Maine.

She went shopping for the ingredients she needed.

Sautéing garlic

Delightful, delicious venison steak, potatoes, and soybeans (edamame).

She sliced potatoes and sweet potatoes, put olive oil in cupcake tins, seasoned and layered them in cupcake tins, baked, and served them with sour cream.

Everything was delicious.

It was a beautiful, cloudy evening. When I was outside enjoying the weather, a helicopter flew overhead.

I love a day when someone cooks for me and the evening is filled with the sound of a helicopter.
