cocktail recipe: Love & Murder (Richard Godwin/The Spirits). Want to try this, especially hoping that it’s a good as they say since “on paper it doesn’t seem like it should work.” Also, I’m in the market for someone who wants to test cocktails on me.
photo essay: Japan’s Kei-tora ‘Mini Truck’ Gardening Contest (Spoon & Tamago) “because most homes in Japan don’t have gardens.” (From 2020 but timeless really.)
short essay: 5, 10, 15 Minutes, It only takes minutes. (S.E. Bourne’s newsletter). On time, or the sun, or growing, or waiting.
a short letter on the experience of loss (Nick Cave/The Red Hand Files). “We become witnesses to the thrilling emergency of the present …”
house photos: It’s the Rightmove Roundup with a Manhattan dreamhouse, Fire Island beach shack, the best flat in Edinburgh EVER. And Catford. (The Sophist). That Fire Island Beach Shack!
