as i type this, the sun is setting over the lake (and confession: we are also watching a christmas episode of community. we are addicted.) anyway... today, two pictures.
one: this amazing little house is where we are temporarily living while we look for our own house. it belongs to simon's parents. so, while we can't stay forever, we are loving it. where else can you go canoeing after dinner and roast marshmallows on a week night?
two: speaking of dinner, this was one of the first meals we ate in the lake house: lobster, avocado, tomato, and mango salad. i am not exaggerating when i say it was "summer in a bowl".
conclusion: nina is officially a maine girl.
this whole post is magical. i'm coming to visit.
