Went to a monthly street market in one of our neighboring small cities. It’s nice to see these small cities embrace multiuse public spaces within a strong retail and restaurant area. Now they just need to cut out the cars to expand the space!

On my café table, a half-finished pain-au-chocolat, the book I’m reading - marked with a napkin. Outside the window, a woman walks. Her scarf is long and vivid red, and ending enthusiastically, with bouncing bobble trim.

In a cafe: A small human (4?) is playing with a doll house. But she does not truck with the dolls on offer.
Oh no.
She's populating this house with chess pieces.
