Back at work, Martin Mbugua was brought to my office by Cass Cliatt for a meet and greet.

A few days alter, we recorded the dessert we had finished.

Next it was Lizzie Just's bridal shower and so the gang gathered and much food was served before the groom arrived and the decorations were admired by all as a mini-city was constructed or maybe two mini-cities. And as the guests tired and departed the locals looked on and then began admiring tomatoes and comparing them with apples.

A few days later, I ran into Kate and her family on the lawn of Nassau Hall and recorded them.

Next week, i went to Cambridge where I ran into Rachel George on Oxford Street and then captured Christina McFadden in the dean's office.

It being the last day of the month, Jane and I went to Dirt Candy in New York where this was the menu and these were the drinks as she ordered the celery and I ordered the carrot for starters and we then continued with cauliflower for her and corn for me and even thought he desserts looked wonderful, we weren't hungry.

A few days later, I went back to New York with Suzanne and we admired the sign at Molly's cupcakes and the statues at this church not to mention this remarkable sculpture before we headed to Jane for brunch (with Jane, of course) and checked out the menu, front and back while they brought French toast which I devoured and then shared with others as the bread came and then Jane's eggs Benedict Suzanne's roasted shrimp ranchero and my granola.

And then, wonder of wonders, it was Ben's last first day of school and so it took him some time to get his shoes on and pose before he finally seemed awake, alert and ready fro the new school year.
