DELIGHT OF THE IN BETWEEN
The mornings have that first little bite — sweater weather for a minute — but by noon, the sun pulls us outside again. It’s the best of both worlds, and we’re making the most of it.
Set the table under the trees, put on a playlist, and make it a slow, happy affair. Stack a platter with bagels still warm from the bakery, cream cheese, smoked salmon, and a scattering of capers. Add a bowl of late-summer tomatoes with a drizzle of olive oil, a carafe of coffee. Let the conversation wander and the lunch stretch — following the sun as it moves across the table.
Even a balcony or a patch of sun on the stoop feels like a celebration right now. We’re chasing the light, soaking up every last warm afternoon, and tucking these moments away to carry into fall.
