Every photo is rich and delicious -- even the ones that aren't food.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was a kid we used to take ripe persimmons, hollow out a hole and insert a firecracker. Then you'd light the firecracker and throw it. Lots of goo when it blew up.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Paulita and I love your captures for the day, Merisi! Delicious indeed!
ReplyDeletecoffee is always better in Italy! Well, better than LA. :)
ReplyDeleteLovely photos! (As always) I am heading to Italy at the end of November! I can't wait!
No tuscany but Rome, Umbria (Assisi) and Genova. One of these days I need to get to Vienna though. You have inspired me!
I dream of Tuscany too but have only ever encountered it in the many films made there.
ReplyDeleteThe strawberry tartlet looks delicious!
