Just a hack but with a passionate curiosity about all aspects of good food, from how the ingredients are grown/raised, its preparation, back story, cultural roots and obviously, its enjoyment. My southern Italian heritage might have something to do with it too - hey, it's in the blood! I'd like this admittedly unpolished blog to be a place to enjoy sharing thoughts, experiences and opinions with each other.You'll find a few garden related posts here too. In our backyard - our little corner of calm and sanity in the world - there's a wood burning oven, a mini vineyard, a nice flat area along side for playing bocce, three olive trees, two fig trees, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, a vegetable garden with garlic, tomatoes, eggplants, peppers, melons, miscellaneous greens, fava beans, herbs and even a 15 year old fennel plant. Plus a a few pet praying mantises patrolling the garden for insect pests, and a couple nutty cats running around. Phew!
