Hot marshmallows, cold tomatoes

Yesterday was very hot because September is a very hot month every year despite my eternal optimism that it will not be, just this once. So I made my family eat cold soup.


They weren't that excited but only because they didn't realize how fast it was to put a bunch of ingredients in a blender for a minute. Then they would have shared my enthusiasm, I'm pretty sure.


We spent the weekend with friends, mournfully noting the end of summer, contemplating transitions, wistfully covering every possible surface in a gloss of marshmallow goo.









But we emerged ready for the next phase of the cycle: dressing ourselves as various internet memes.
