Bon Appétit’s newest issue cover reminds readers to “Chill, It’s Summer,” and we can’t agree more. Between weekend trips to the beach sitting in traffic to July 4th blowouts and other social norms we’re supposed to keep in check (work, exercise, happy hours, etc.), let us treat you to a week off, of sorts. Take a roundtrip bus to the Summer Rosé, Bubbly, & Food Festival at RGNY’s vast vineyards, LOL at a curated comedy show in LES, get some art therapy at a 2-hour BYOB painting class, feast on a 3 course dinner at a New York Times critically-acclaimed restaurant, and more. You deserve this!
