In The Kitchen: A Slice Of Summer
There are a few things that define the feeling of summer—linen dresses warm from the line, the low buzz of bees in a lavender patch, the sticky hands of a popsicle eaten too slowly. But for us, the true start of summer happens in the kitchen. It begins quietly, when the tomatoes start to pile up on the counter—sun-ripened, jewel-toned, impossibly fragrant. Each one feels like a tiny gift from the garden, begging to be turned into something wonderful.
