. . . this weekend was a few luxurious moments to catch up on a little reading, afternoons in the warm late-winter sunshine and late lunches at old favourite places; there were also renovations—[contractors and things being built, a maddeningly fine dust falling over everything]—but also, the wonderful feeling of things accomplished and being steps closer to all the projects and plans that have begun some time ago; and there dinner at a new italian restaurant, glasses of montepulciano d’abruzzo and today, so much sunlight, it feels as if spring might arrive at any moment . . .

hope you’ve had [are having] a perfectly lovely [long] weekend, and that it’s beautiful where you are, —roséline xo
