SUMMER IS FOR OUTDOOR DINING

L'ETE, C'EST POUR LES REPAS DEHORS

It is hot and muggy in New York right now and the really bad news, apart from making one's forays into the city nearly unbearable, -and a sure recipe for catching quadruple pneumonia from air conditioning excess- is that it is impossible to enjoy alfresco dining at all. 

I miss the long evenings of France in the summer, where you can stay and talk with friends while having a great meal, late into the night, without being eaten alive by mosquitoes or melting away in the heat... and into the darkness.

I guess I may have to be content with just beautiful memories and images of such glorious evenings from the glossy magazines that seem to really want to make me homesick at every turn. Oh, well. Bientot. I am relatively soon to experience anew the wonderful late night diners dehors I love so much. I really should not complain. So, in the meantime, share with me lovely shots of stunning homes with stunning eating areas somewhere south of somewhere. 

Revons un peu.

We can dream, non?
