Easter time

What is Easter without flowers? Lillies symbolize new life and the resurrection of Christ.

Purple lilac symbolizes the first emotions of love

I would guess this a variation of forget-me-nots

This is a camouflaged bird watch. The old stone tower of our house used to be where hunters would trap the local birds to sell them for food. Thank goodness they are protected now and can only be lovingly observed :) 

next project :O

the view from the Capriolo trattoria


they make THE best panna cotta I've ever had, there is a hint of hot pepper in the chocolate sauce, simply divune




cute little old metal playset on their lawn

the front door (me with the doors again)


We love to take a long hike up the mountain to arrive at our favorite place called Capriolo. A little gem owned and run by a lovely couple where everything is homemade.  The menu depends on what is fresh and in season.

On Good Friday fish is traditionally eaten.  This sloppy concoction is called Chitarre con nero di seppie ( Long square pasta or with squid ink.  Chitarre meaning guitar because guitar-like strings are used to shape this pasta.)

It is really good and SO much fun to clean up after!

The Easter version of panettone, a Colomba or Dove
