The last two weeks: Cookout ideas, cookbook giveaways and previews and more

You may have noticed that we skipped last week’s roundup as the monthly newsletter had just been published. Today’s roundup will contain twice the information so I promise not to linger on any one topic. Here in the US, this weekend marks the official end of the summer season with our Labor Day holiday. Many Americans will be firing up the grill and gathering together in the backyard to celebrate (albeit with social distancing).

For brevity’s sake in this roundup, I’ll share a few cookout idea links for your weekend plans whether in the US for Labor Day or around the globe to celebrate the weekend!

• Eat Your Books’ Summer Grilling Pinterest Board
• Eat Your Books’ Picnic and Outdoor Pinterest Board
• 17 Labor Day Cookout Recipes (from the same site 18 Make-Ahead Ideas for your Summer Cookout)
• 50 Classic Recipes for Labor Day
• 20 Best Labor Day Recipes
• 60 Labor Day Recipes
