Just as soon as I planned my annual August grab-bag menu challenge, the refrigerator broke. The same day a long-awaited new water heater showed up, along with the installer, who regretted to inform us we’d be without hot water for a day (or two, as it turned out). Our internet and cell service, both of which had been heading towards oblivion all summer, were threatening to expire altogether. This made contacting the fridge repair folks difficult. When the smoke signals finally got through, the message back was clear: You’re on a very long waiting list.

Nina Levin, chef and owner of Stoney Hill Pizza, opened her mobile business on June 13. Since then she's been turning out wood-fired pizzas at the West Tisbury Farmers' Market and private events.
