midsummer vignette

waking up to birdsong, fresh strawberries for breakfast, picking wildflowers, dining outdoors, grilled vegetables and chèvre with rosé, sun-bleached linen clothes with tattered loafers, the comforting greens of nature all around, lying on a blanket in the garden with a good book in hand, the scent of sunscreen and freshly cut grass, going for a swim with friends and the family dogs, throwing on an old wool jumper to go watch the bonfire at night

And then the day faded. We were dreaming, waiting for night. Standing at the front door at twilight, watching the shadows lengthen.

Louise Glück, from "Midsummer" in Poems 1962-2012

Light Edification

The quiet whisper of spoon against mug, ceramic kiss over aromatic rise of tea;

orange pekoe, clove, cinnamon, and honey. Fingers tracing the words, newsprint slide

under skin, as slow as the stir of the teaspoon. Languid. Reading the news as the weak

morning sun dances through the jasmine, shadow puppets across the forest green kitchen

curtains. The words enter the same as the tea. Hot, spicy, and filling.

CloHo episode 3 spoilers

As someone who has ruined multiple escape rooms and murder mystery games by solving ciphers before I’m supposed to I felt very seen watching Siobhan absolutely wreck Brennan’s mystery
