hello! home again and so lovely to see you — sincerest apologies for being suddenly m.i.a. the past few days — an unscheduled and dramatically last-minute trip to new york city late last week, and it’s been a whirlwind of romance and strawberry cocktails, long dinners and late nights, beautiful shops and sunrises over the water, early morning swims and menus filled with the most delicious things, like wild blossom salad with champagne vinaigrette . . . much to tell and many, lovely photographs — but first, a few moments to catch my breath . . .
