A restaurant around the corner from us started doing private dinners, and with my wife’s 30th birthday happening I asked to see what the process would be like. We packed 14 of our closest friends into this gorgeous, tiny little refurbished car garage filled with flowers and wine and Italian music and proceeded to have one of the best five course meals of my life. Moments like last night sort of get you in a “maybe this is what life is all about” moods. There’s an artist I like that said all of life’s essence & purpose can be found in the sound of wine glasses clinging together at a table filled with good friends and good food. I think that nights like last night cement those sentiments as truth.

I think people sleep on the energy you can encapsulate on a random night out dinner. But also think I’m addicted 2 celebrating.

Don't make it fancy. Don't overthink it.
You don't even have to cook.
It's just about creating and protecting a physical space for beloved luminaries to gather and connect and be themselves.
Bonus points if you give rise to a literary movement and cultural renaissance in the process.

Ive been participating in a little ritual of drinking my coffee in front of the river that’s 20 paces away from da crib. I’ll fire up my dear espresso machine, measure out and pull a double shot into my whimsical arket mug, froth some milk, slide into my fav puffer, and walk the 20 or so steps to the bench by the river with MY mug dude. how fun is that
the sun was surprisingly confident and brilliant by amsterdam standards today and wow feeling the warmth on my face, seeing the rays do their ✨twinkle✨twinkle on the water, sipping exceptional coffee that I made from MY mug… sublime.
sketchy characters by the underpass to the right and the neighbourhood dogs trotting by on their daily walk add to the charm.

I love Gary so much. I love his abstract colouring. He’s so gorgeously colourful, but in a non-obnoxious way that suits me. I love his cute little fingers and toes. Sometimes, I’ll interlace my own fingies with his limbs. I love his little belly pooch. I love how I met him — at the Stedelijk museum after visiting an exhibition on Marina Abromovic. My favourite of all, I love his gloriously curled tail that recoils back into its original shape no matter how much I fidget around with it. Ngl tho, on more occasions than I’d care to admit, I open my eyes as I break out of sleep, and I catch of glimpse of Gary’s goofy face and oogly boogly eyes, and I get spooked for a millisecond before I compute: ‘Oh, it’s Gary’.
