Some Sundays are for catching up. Others are for catching your breath.

This one is the latter.

Lately, I’ve been leaning into the kind of Sundays that don’t ask much. The kind where you sip your tea slowly, let the day unfold at its own pace, and wrap yourself in a little quiet before the week begins again. And for days like that, music matters.

I made a playlist for those slow, in-between moments, for the golden hush that only a Sunday brings. These songs feel like warm light on the floor, the first page of a book you’ve already read three times, or muffins rising in the oven while the window fogs up.

Here’s what’s playing in the cottage today:

♫ The Night We Met – Lord Huron
A little dreamy, a little nostalgic—like remembering something you never lived, but still miss.

♫ Coffee – beabadoobee
Simple, sweet, and exactly how your coffee should sound.

♫ Sweet Nothing – Taylor Swift
Soft piano, softer lyrics. This one feels like writing in your journal by candlelight.

♫ Daydream – The Lovin’ Spoonful
Playful and sunny. It’s like dancing in your kitchen barefoot while something bakes.

♫ Fields of Gold – Eva Cassidy
Gentle and golden. It wraps around you like a warm blanket.

♫ Reverie – Claude Debussy
A timeless piece that sounds like thought itself. Play this with the window open.

♫ Moon River – Audrey Hepburn
Delicate and classic. For when you want to feel like you live inside a favorite movie.

♫ Just Like Heaven – Katie Melua
A soft, elegant cover of a familiar tune—familiar, but newly tender.

This playlist isn’t for rushing or cleaning or fixing anything. It’s for being. For baking. For letting yourself pause.

If your day could use a little softness, I hope these songs find you. Light a candle, pour something warm, and press play.

With warmth,

Autumn
