"A weekly treat to myself: cut flowers from the garden down the road; $7 for as many flowers as you can fit in your fist. And Queen Anne's Lace, foraged where I can find it (parking lots; the side of the road). There's nothing I love more than seeing a field of it: pure summer."
"I am eternally rearranging my summertime display of sea-weathered rocks, seashells, and sun-bleached lobster claws, inspired by the brilliant Jim Ede, of Kettle's Yard in Cambridge."
"During our long-belated honeymoon in Copenhagen, we stayed at Kanalhuset in Christianshaven. The highlights: communal dinners with locals in the dining room, great design (glossy painted wood floors, colorful textiles on the walls), and morning dips in the canals."
"I had an amazing lunch at Toklas, a Mediterranean restaurant tucked away in Temple, just by the river Thames in London. Everything about it was pitch perfect: stylish 1950s furniture and leather banquettes, the terrace has been planted up by garden designer Miria Harris, and the food was sublime."
"This month I loved buying pink okra from the small greenmarket near me, at Bartel-Pritchard Square, Brooklyn. The okra is grown by Nolasco Farm, New Jersey. To cook, I blanched the okra briefly; tossed it with avocado oil, salt, and ground cumin; and roasted it for 30 minutes at 400°F."
