Guys: Sublimity (aka a bookstore and a coffee shop) can be reclaimed post-kid. That is, if your ever-obliging partner takes said child to a museum, while you get the afternoon alone with scones and books.
That makes it sound like I don't like my kid, which isn't true, I hope you know. I just also occasionally like doing things that my kid doesn't like. In addition, I have to go out of town for good coffee and books.

We had one of those moments the other day - Jayber made poached eggs, classical music was playing, the big kids were playing in the other room...together...nicely... (shock!) and the baby was sleeping. I stopped, mentioned how lovely the moment was, breathed it in and was thankful for it. Then the kids started fighting. Ha! But we had a moment! And it was lovely! :-)
Glad you got some time away - in fact, those moments make us love our kids even more :-)
Ha--that sounds like a wonderful moment!!
