The first day of summer
On the first days of summer, we gather outside until the sun goes down.
I’m feeling nostalgic for those nights of my childhood when I awaited for the long days and school-less evenings. Felt such excitement.
I was overcome by the feeling again during my trip to Montreal this past weekend. The euphoria of sunlight. We walked, we dined, we laughed. I didn’t want it to end. But I am very excited for the plans this summer has in store for us. Soon I will be even sharing my book trailer. Would you like to see it?
It is coming.
I leave you with these tomatoes from our community garden.
Summer on a platter.

I hope you’ll give us a post about your trip to Montreal.
It’s sweltering hot here in the Canadian Capital(31 degrees Celsius, feels like 41) so it really feels like summer.

Montreal misses you, Aran……

Such a beautiful pic, love it! :-)
Those tomatoes are absolutely perfect and they look SO summery! Here in Sweden I’ll have to wait for more sun for our tomatoes to ripen ;-) And btw, I love your blog!
Please post some Montreal photos? Yes? :)
Aimee- It was so great to see you again and your little one is just too adorable. And how much fun did we have at Joe Beef? I loved it!
CB and Jen- Hopefully soon!
Thank you everyone and happy summer solstice!
You’ve totally inspired me to make a very summer-y dinner this evening. Can’t wait for the book.
Congrats, congrats! I’m excited for summer too and will be spending it making a ton of your recipes!!
What could start summer better than a plate of fresh tomatoes?! :)
That’s wonderful, congratulations
So excited to see the book trailer!! We here in Finland will celebrate midsummer tomorrow. With family and friends as well as lots of delicious food.

Ah el lunes hice los panckes de guisantes con salmon (el salmon en vez de ahumado lo puse fresco y pasado ligero por la plancha) buenisimo, voy a hacer la misma receta con maiz que me parece que tambien puede quedar bien.

I love the long days in the summer. For me, summer still means no school since I’m a grad student so I get to relish those feelings of no class and lots of sun!
Summer has ended for us last month…now it is rainy/wet season for us. I miss the trips to the beach but the cool rains are a welcome respite from the heat! So looking forward to your book trailer!! I am sure it will be just as gorgeous as everything here :)
Ah, the promise of summer tomatoes, hot sun and sandy toes, balmy nights by the sea … I am so ready for the season.
(and yes I’d like to see your book trailer!)
Excited to see your book trailer!
Love the little tomatoes! Very cute & super tasty too :)
I hope to give something back and help others like you aided me.
