Specifically during the summer, putting on Melophobia or Pure Heroine or Blonde when I’m driving home from work makes me feel like I’m ruffling the hair of my fourteen year old self and saying “You’re gonna be alright, kid.”
It’s a nice trip down memory lane. Mine include of Montreal, new pornographers, sufjan, the shins (garden state was big, ok?), and the soundtrack to spring awakening.
The vines are consuming fire hydrants and power lines and stop signs and every gust of wind is filling the air with a delicious magnificent jasmine scent and I feel delirious and reborn and glad to be alive

Take a walk, take a whiff :-)
This is something that I started doing last year and they are now fundamentally important to me.
A dessert walk is an after dinner stroll you take ideally during sunset. You walk to a grocery store and buy a sweet treat or piece of fruit and a fun beverage. For me usually a peach and a kombucha. You walk for a bit as the sun sets and return when your treats are consumed.
A delicious end to your evening that helps you digest.
