6 quaint dinners to watch your neighbours have from your lonely, dark apartment

As the sun relentlessly sets each winter night, turn off the lights and take a moment to peer out the window of your silent apartment at your neighbours sharing a delicious home-cooked meal in each other’s company.

Seared Halibut and Kale Pesto Salad - Obscured discreetly behind the cheapest curtain you could find at IKEA, witness your wholesome neighbours tuck into a market-fresh halibut as the candlelight dances upon their lovely faces.
Hearty Vegan Enchiladas - Ensuring each and every light in the apartment that you rent and inhabit all alone is off, take a little peek at the couple across the street, whose love for one another appears more stirring, more genuine than ever when sitting down to dine on this warm winter feast.
Lamb Kebabs and Minted Yogurt Sauce - Take a break from washing the single bowl and spoon you used for breakfast that serves as the only reminder you’re alive, and press your face against the window pane to take in the carefully curated meal your neighbours are enjoying because they value each other and themselves.
Butternut Squash Risotto - Seems like they’re having a little party. Look at all those handmade paper garlands. Watch the world churn and churn around you, you can practically smell the buttery sweetness of the squash and hear the music of their laughter from across the street in your chamber of shadows.
Braised Pork and Pomegranate Relish - At this point it just seems like they know someone’s watching and they like it. What is pomegranate relish? Why don’t they have curtains? Why do they have a $300 rustic linen tablecloth and napkin set in harvest neutrals but no curtains?
Leek Frittata - They have spotted you. This is fine. Just quietly back into the hollow darkness of your one-bedroom apartment and gently draft a letter to the landlord breaking the lease and quietly cancel your internet and utilities and as best you can in the pitch black void pack a bag with whatever essentials you can recognize by touch and ever-so subtly leave the apartment, lock the door behind you and throw the keys in a dumpster and never return.
