Time To Say Goodbye (or at least "Goodnight")

Andrea Bocelli's Con Te Partirò is one of our quiet-but-glorious Friday night listening rituals; Italian pop opera that is both sensuous and spiritual and a beautiful way to wind down a week and soundtrack a soft-lit bowtie pasta and artisan bread dinner.

Another good way to wind down a long week: having children stay in bed after they go to bed and you're trying to sneakily get into sugary treats.
