It seems like quite some time since I last wrote on my blog. I am home now...well home in Italy after a month of vacation in Canada. It was an uneventful flight on Air France and I have come to realize that they have re-routed the better planes with the personal tvs in them elsewhere. Luckily for my laptop I was able to entertain myself. It seemed like a month passed in a fortnight. I was very happy to have met with my friends and family. Everyday was a lunch or dinner or a coffee to catch up with. Being at the farm I must say was the highlight. A very magical place and I look forward to setting up home there one day.
I have been contemplating what to write about now on this blog over the next three months. So I will add some interest besides my own experiences. It will give me an opportunity to do some art research and hope to find things of interest for you all as well. Until then...here is a delicious Italian recipe to try. Ciao.
