Slow meals = life. From Daniel Gilbert of Harvard to Martin Seligman of Princeton, the “happiness” (self-reported well-being) researchers seem to agree on one thing: Mealtime with friends and loved ones is a direct predictor of well-being. Have at least one 2-to-3-hour dinner and/or drinks per week—yes, 2–3 hours—with those who make you smile and feel good. I find the afterglow effect to be greatest and longest with groups of five or more. Two times that are conducive to this: Thursday dinners or after-dinner drinks and Sunday brunches.
💛We are absolutely thrilled to share Nick Banning's hip, witty & interesting words on a lark:
Saturnine sky with long days, long sunsets, long shadows. Summer makes the promise that take off is voluntary, yet landing is required...
Poem on the blog!

💛We kicked off summer with a super fun (& delicious) “private” pop-up communal dinner.
We seldom do private events, but we can be convinced through sheer sincerity + determination ☆.
