The first time my family walked into a Ponderosa Steakhouse was in the late 1960s. It was new and the experience was great. Like other new restaurants, if the management doesn't stay on top, the quality of service can decline. The location we went to did change through the years, but in the beginning, it was great.

There are few occasions more utterly joyous than London’s annual Pride parade, the rainbow-hued celebration which, this year, saw over 32,000 people from 500 LGBTQIA+ community groups and businesses take to the streets of the capital on Saturday. Led by the Mayor of London, the procession made its way from Hyde Park Corner to Piccadilly Circus and Trafalgar Square before culminating in Westminster, after which the revelry continued at the Trans and Non-Binary Community Stage in Soho Square, the Cabaret Stage on Dean Street, the World Stage in Golden Square, the LGBTQIA+ Women’s and Non-Binary Stage in Leicester Square, and the Youth Zone in Victoria Embankment Gardens. As attendees basked in the glorious sunshine, there was, as usual, a stunning array of exuberant looks on display. Thankfully, photographer Aimee McGhee was on hand to capture all the festivities for Vogue. Below, see her very best shots from the day.

What is more summery than an icy, sweet frozen drink? If the heat wave is getting to you, try whipping up this simple frozen strawberry lemonade. All you need is your choice of lemonade and some frozen strawberries. You can use store-bought lemonade, make your own from scratch, or a powdered version. As for strawberries, frozen ones are the easiest choice. If you'd rather use fresh, add at least two cups of ice until you reach a nice, frozen consistency.

David Trubridge’s path to where he is today is quite unconventional. In fact, he didn’t plan to start a global lighting business nor did he plan to settle in New Zealand. Being a natural adventurer and risk-taker meant anything could happen. In 1976 across a marshy field, an old barn called Dykehead was renovated and turned into a workshop. After it was completed, David started to develop his business while also holding a part-time job as a forester on the local estate. David’s skills and mind were developing and the home had become a safe haven. Now, many years later, David is one of New Zealand’s most internationally recognizable designers. He is known for his kitset lighting and environmental activism. David Trubridge Ltd the company, has evolved since 1995: from David’s original studio-based practice, to now making everything in Whakatu, Hawke’s Bay, New Zealand. Learn more about these beautiful lighting designs in today’s Maker Monday.
