I’ve been reading in the park, but it’s getting cold and I can’t concentrate anymore. I dip into the French bistro + cafe overlooking the park from across the sidewalk for some warmth, and when the feeling comes back to my body again, I remember that I haven’t yet eaten lunch. I opt for the onion soup gratinee — it’s French onion soup gratinee, but the French is implied — and of course I go for a cappuccino as well.
