café culture—if only
I remember now the advantage to the short days of northern climes in the winter: evenings of infinite extent. You think it's late, then realize it's only 9pm. As daylight was in the summer lavishly applied, now eveningtime is. Yesterday: Korean barbecue dinner, then a lounging in the pillows-filled nook at Java's cafe while forking chocolate brownie cake and sipping spicy "aztec" cocoa. (I'm not usually one for silly café creations, but hot chocolate + espresso + cinnamon + chili peppers = a winner.) Lying on pillows while eating chocolate cake, in the evening, in public—this is really the decadence in the best of ways. Then we retired to the loft.
