Monday Morning // Weekending

Friday night: I invite a few friends over for a raclette cheese party. Trader Joe’s a.k.a. Trader Jacques only sell this French cheese 2 months a year. When I bought 4 small boxes, the cashier looked at me saying “oh, it’s that time of year.”

Saturday: I don’t do a thing. It’s so rare I deeply enjoy it. I read (The Girls, Emma Cline) and watch the season 2 of Easy, which I find even more interesting than the first one. I spend the night at my favorite dive bar, where the waiters know me, and that makes me happy. I do try a different drink than my usual though.

Sunday: to restore some balance between a horizontal/vertical life, I go to Newport Rhode Island to take some fresh air and visit one of the mansion (The Elms) decorated for Christmas. It’s too much but I love it. There’s even a giant mansion-like gingerbread house.

That’s what I call a real weekend.
