For What it's Worth
So, I have a problem, and I wonder if I’m the only one who finds it nearly impossible to swallow vitamin pills, that look like horse pills. I have searched health food stores and asked the owners for their input, but time and again, I am received by the dark brown or green, non see through glass, believing that at long last I have come across a tablet the size, perhaps, of an Advil. That, to me, makes sense, rather than choking on something that no one should have to ingest.
BETWEEN THE LINES
Conversations That Won't Let Go
I have a habit of replaying conversations long after they’ve ended. Not the easy ones, but the awkward exchanges or moments that felt slightly off. I’ll be driving or trying to fall asleep and suddenly I’m
back there, reviewing it like footage, convinced I missed something. At first, it feels productive. I tell myself I’ll land on the perfect version of what I should
have said. But that version never comes. The scene just loops, and instead of clarity, I’m left with a low-grade tension that annoys me for days on end.
RECIPE
Strawberry Vanilla Cheesecake Cups
Those tasked with prepared a homemade dessert have plenty of options to consider, including this recipe for “Strawberry and Vanilla Cheesecakes With a Ginger Cookie Base” from Lines+Angles.
DINING
Osteria by Capri
Arrives in Palm Beach’s south-end with modern, coastal Italian cuisine including seafood, salads, pasta, and grilled meat and fish. Whatever you’re craving, Acqua is sure to be the treat.
LOCAL
The Local Advantage
As the height of the season begins to taper off, Palm Beach shifts into one of its most enjoyable phases, though you would not know it unless you were looking for it. The crowds thin, and suddenly the town feels a little more relaxed. This is the time to revisit the places that felt out of reach a few weeks ago.
BOOK REVIEW
The Wedding People
Alison Espach has a particular talent for finding humor in emotional free fall, and The Wedding People may be her most precise balancing act yet. At once sharply funny and quietly devastating, the novel examines grief, reinvention, and the strange
intimacy of being surrounded by strangers at a celebration you were never meant to attend. It After is a story that understands how life’s most disorienting moments rarely arrive with solitude. Instead, they tend to unfold in the middle of noise, expectation, and other people’s joy.
