A small plan for right now

One of each, matched to the weather and the mood — enough to decide the evening without overthinking it.

Watch

Before Sunrise (1995, 101 min)
Two people, one long conversation—intimate and unhurried.

Soul (2020, 100 min)
Thoughtful and gentle about everyday joy; a soft reset.

Eat

Caprese plate (10 min)
Slice tomatoes and mozzarella.

Cold soba noodles with sesame (15 min)
Boil soba, then rinse under cold water until cool.

Listen

Sade — By Your Side
Smooth, warm and reassuring.

Frank Ocean — Pink + White
Soft, bright and a little wistful.

Khruangbin — So We Won't Forget
Warm, easy groove that drifts along.

Do

Sun on your face for ten minutes
Step outside, find the light, and just stand in it. A balcony, doorstep or park bench all count.

Two-question check-in
Ask each other: what was good today, and what's one thing on your mind? Listen without fixing.

Tidy your camera roll for ten minutes
Delete blurry shots, save a few favourites. Oddly satisfying and genuinely useful.
