eating outdoors






Take the plates out to the patio. Bring the cutlery too, and the napkins, and the water glasses. We will gather barefoot over bowls of good food and we will let the sun warm our shoulders and we will talk. We will most definitely talk.
And our neighbours will be outdoors, the ones on either side and the ones next to them. I can hear them laughing, and I can hear them playing, and I can hear them dancing.
Let's eat outdoors tonight.

  4. Yes, eating outdoors is a wonderful, nostalgic pastime. I love it. Every bit of it. From fireflies that start to hum and light up towards dessert to the *clink* of silver cutlery when all is quiet.

    Bliss.

    love, me.

  9. Oh no! This post made me hungry just looking at your delicious pasta. I wish I could eat outdoors, but since I live in an apartment...that's not possible.
