« $60 Trip to Paris | Main | Fine Cuisine for the Right-Brained »

Firenze

Would you just like a list of all that we have eaten?

The full report must wait until I can upload photos and use a keyboard that has a familiar ching ching to it. However, let this be a warning to you all.  I am now working on a fiber arts Italian adventure for next year. It will begin in Florence and proceed to Selva, a Tuscan home and studio deep in the woods of a 1000 acre estate near Lucca. We will see silks and cashmere goats, weaving and dyeing, and do our own work (as well as cooking classes) in the kitchen studio.

Foods to consider: bread soup and bread salad, bufalo mozzerella (forget everything you thought you knew about the cheese), gelati in all imaginable flavors, buttery lettuce and tomatoes shaped like the duomo, chocolate bars by the Bolognese Majana, lasagna from the street corner cafe, eggs with yolks as orange as saffron.

And that was I think day one.

Food in Italy - what could be better? Can't wait to hear the details of your trip.I'd also like to know what you are going to do with the clay - or have I missed something?

I have to read Daniel P's book, as all right-brained people need to do. I did notice that ARTIST was not on the emerging careers list.

Susie, love all the fluency skills you've developed in this new graphic communications medium. Also reminded me to make time to take a day off close to home. Julia
