We have been having a great summer with lots of outdoor cooking both at home and while traveling in the RV. These easy, delicious potatoes are perfect whether made on a gas grill, over a campfire, or on a charcoal fire. They are the perfect side for whatever else is being cooked up, and the leftovers make great fried potatoes in the morning.

Magical Gratin Dauphinois and A Book Review
I just finished listening to Wizard of Most Wicked Ways by Charlie N. Holmberg. This is the 4th book in the Whimbrel House Novels. I enjoyed it, however, it was my least favorite of the series. I'm anxious for the next book so I can see if all turns out well for these lovable characters.
