#DecemberDreams Day 4: #LetItSnow on this tenerina chocolate cake - a delicacy in Ferrara in all its soft-moist glory. Nothing like it.

#HumbleHarvest Day 19: Pistachio #Nuts in this pizza with buratta cheese, truffle oil, and prosciutto in our very first lunch in Bologna when we arrived yesterday from Sharjah (via Istanbul). Took the train to Ferrara this morning where we are now til Thursday. Naturally, I bring Italo Calvino with me while in Italy. 💕

Sitting in a cafe after having been caught in a summer shower seems an appropriate context for this read.

Today's library sale #bookhaul. I found a few new-to-me books and a couple that were already on my seemingly endless tbr list. I'm especially looking forward to revisiting Calvino. 🧡

RamsFan1963 The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress. One of Heinlein's best books IMHO 5y

I read this June 8-9 and gave it 3 stars on Good Reads. I was not a fan of this book but I could recognize Calvino‘s talent with words. That said I really liked the third story in the book “The Name, The Nose.”

Not sure what I think of this one so far. It‘s three short stories and I am halfway through the second story. Not sure if I like Calvino‘s writing or not. It reminds me of other writer‘s work.

Great, but all to short, journey with mr. Palomar. Thoughtfull insights in the art of describing life, earth, elements, charcuteri and cheese among others.
