Summer evenings are made for strolling. The shadows are long and the temperatures mild. People sit outdoors on their stoops, sipping cold drinks and smoking cigarettes. And afterwards, a glass of wine, or perhaps a lemon verbena gimlet?
A few lovely things:
* an update from Greer ~ the first home-grown salad!
And as the newspaper man yelled at me this morning: "welcome to your tuesday!"

The gimlet sounds divine. And yay! for Greer!
I am going to treat myself to that gimlet the minute I finish grading! And - news flash, I harvested some swiss chard! Cheers to you.
1) I'm definitely craving a gimlet now.
2) Is this your stoop?
3) You were up when your paper came? Mine comes at like 4 in the morning,
Sounds like we need to have a gimlet party! Greer is bringing the lemon verbena.
Abby ~ alas, no, it is not my stoop...I just walk by it every day and wish it was. Our papers come around 4 as well...I can hear the thuds as the delivery guy makes his way down the hall!
Lovely images and thoughts, as usual, Janet. Sounds like a novel.
Thank you Courtney!
