    Late Lughnasadh Harvest (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    Lughnasadh (what is Lughnasadh?) was never really about the calendar (celebrated August 1). It’s about whatever’s ready, and right now, Late Summer is ready.The whole rhythm of lunch has collapsed into the ritual of walking out to the beds, see what’s fully ripe or heavy on the vine, and let that be the meal.

    Remaining in Central Europe -- The Livable Spaces (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone

    Read excerpt

    Europe has a category of city that I’ve loved over the decades (omg I can say decades cry). Vienna, Paris, Rome, Amsterdam, Budapest. Istanbul has just earned its place on that list. These are cities that justify the plane ticket and jet lag. They demand everything you have and give back something electric.
