We're fine, we're cool, and we might not be in the African bush enjoying this safari platter while straining our eyes in the dusk light looking for lions, but at least we have our biltong and some wine, and on the longest day of the year we plan to stay put and soak up the sun in Brooklyn. Nope, we're not dreaming of game drives and the smell of the earth after the rains.

No,not at all.

The Safari Platter:

1 bag of Brooklyn Biltong

One round of your favorite cheese

Half a jar of Peppadews

Crackers

Crisp white wine

Not pictured:

Nuts

Dried Fruit

Gin and Tonics

Beer of choice

The scenario which is also not pictured:

Out of Africa playing on Apple TV, which if we strain our heads to the right while sitting on our fire escape, we can almost see Meryl Streep and Robert Redford staring deeply into one another's eyes.
