Home Style Saturdays 38 | Summer Luxuries and Dining al Fresco
It’s the weekend again and time for relaxing! If you’re anything like me and you enjoy those small summer luxuries, perhaps you love dining al fresco? It’s one of my favorite things to do. It doesn’t matter the meal. Sometimes after a morning run into town, I’ll stop for casual breakfast at an outdoor cafe. Lunch in the park is an exquisite joy, even if it’s a sandwich in a brown paper bag (although all the better if it’s a picnic basket with little delectables).
Of course, my favorite of the summer luxuries is dinner under the stars. There’s just something about eating outdoors that is so delightful. Are you with me? Or are you one of those people that hates the wind/bugs/or other imperfections of an outdoor meal? I do know people that feel like that but it’s just so hard for me to understand…
In any case, happy weekend!

I love to eat outside whenever I can. I am so happy that it finally warmed up so we can do that! Enjoy your weekend, Lory!

Oh, I am so with you–love being outdoors. I used to sleep outside quite often when we had our screened-in porch. I so miss that porch, and it’s first on my list when we build our retirement home. I don’t know if it’s the fresh air , the night sounds, the stars, or a combination of all three, but it’s just so intoxicating. I also love walking at night when no one is around. It’s so peaceful, and makes me feel thankful just to be able to enjoy it. Hugs!
We recently purchased an outdoor fire pit, and it has made evenings outside even better. The food always seems better when dining outdoors!
