here's to...

books and reading and book clubs where you pick and choose and sometimes discuss the books in question and sometimes you just talk about other things.

beautiful bungalows with backyard gardens on quiet streets. the setting for my evening runs these days is the loveliest.

seats at the bar and jokes with the chefs.

purchasing plane tickets and impending adventures.

talk of bicycles, summer bike rides, and helmets—safety first!
