Lest I seem too dour about the food I’ve encountered during my stay here in Michigan, I’d like to point out that there have been some highlights.

Lowell township does have one reasonably fancy joint, “The Flat River Grill”, which serves tasty and colorful food, wine, &c.

The more commonplace local cuisine, can be good enough to make its characteristic beige color seem like a benefit. I enjoyed the hot turkey sandwich that can be seen at the top of this post. The Backwater Café also bakes their own bread. Fresh bread is never a bad thing, right?

I would like to do less eating-out and more cooking at home, but given the hours we work on location that can be difficult. Luckily, this coming Monday, I won’t have to cook or eat at all.
