A Summer Moment

[debka_notion]

I just had one of those essential summer moments- I made a very wet, vinegary salad with yesterday's cherry tomatoes and some red onion, and was eating it listening to a dance CD from I think 3 years ago, and it just felt very much seasonally appropriate. Food I couldn't have (or at least, taht wouldn't taste the same at all) the rest of the year, and music I might not take the time to take out, at least as a CD, most of the time. For all the humid rain, it just feels very clean and separated in time. And yet, like the stereotypical summer memory, it feels bittersweet.
