{weekend links, on tuesday}

. . . and if there was ever any doubt that summer is the best time ever, this weekend would certainly change all views to the contrary -- there was saturday brunch on a leafy terrace {toad in the hole with mozzarella and prosciutto, and an elderflower mimosa}, sunday brunch on a balcony terrace {eggs benedict with lemon hollandaise sauce on a freshly baked croissant, and a bellini}, a film {the trip -- have you seen?}, a blanket & books in the park and vanilla coconut cupcakes, and most of all, many, many moments drenched in sunlight . . .

hope you had an impossibly beautiful weekend, and that your week is off to a perfect start, roséline xo

{to sleep perchance to dream}

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”

~mark twain

. . . one of the best things ever is to wake up at an insanely early hour and catch a flight to some wildly romantic, far-off place, even if it means a tiny cat-nap, mid-coffee in the airport lounge, moments before take-off . . .



{p.s.} and to p, thank you for being the best travelling companion in the world, and can not wait to make a million more memories on our next adventure . . .
