http://my-sicilian-home.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html

All Things Molto Deliziosa. 100 Things About Me. Sunday, September 30, 2012. Crazy things I never knew about Sicily. And the Cadogan guide on Sicily. 8 On the same theme of scam artists in Palermo, this story happened much more recently. In 2005, a Palermitani couple bilked a poor woman out of 50,000 euros. How did they do this? They claimed to be vampires so convincingly that she truly believed that they would come and impregnate her with the Antichrist if she failed to pay up. In the 1960s, historian U...

All Things Molto Deliziosa. 100 Things About Me. Thursday, August 09, 2012. Cianciana Life: Saturday Evening – Espresso and Ferraris. In the evening, after we have changed from our pool wear, we do our passagiata or walkabout. Every evening there are hundreds of people walking about, however tonight it seems that more than half the town is out. Young men, hair precisely quaffed into a faux-hawk, crisp and clean polo shirts with the collars turned up. The roads have been blocked off to regular traffic and...

My Sicilian Home: And More Progress!

http://my-sicilian-home.blogspot.com/2013/03/and-more-progress.html

All Things Molto Deliziosa. 100 Things About Me. Monday, March 04, 2013. Nick and I drove an hour to the nearest city to go to our favourite travel agent. I know there are travel agents in our little town but we have been dealing with Flight Centre. For a decade now and they have never been anything but helpful. Picture borrowed from http:/ vintage.johnnyjet.com. So we bought our tickets, booked the car, got the travel insurance and we are in negotiations for a housesitter! Scott sent us this message:.

Just Off the One-Lane Road: A Brit in Tennessee

http://justofftheonelaneroad.blogspot.com/2012/05/brit-in-tennessee.html

Sunday, May 27, 2012. A Brit in Tennessee. My blog post for this Memorial Day weekend is to direct you to this lady's blog. It is- IMHO- simply breathtaking.be sure to WAIT for the music, as the commentary is made more dramatic (if that is possible) with the musical background. Read the poems and the quotations she has chosen to accompany her photographs. I've not sought her permission, but it is my hope she will be gladdened by my recommendation. Shouldn't we humans by now be done with war? Blue Ridge B...

Just Off the One-Lane Road: Why?

http://justofftheonelaneroad.blogspot.com/2012/05/why.html

Monday, May 28, 2012. Have you ever thought about the fact that too much of what we Americans celebrate is connected with war? Let's take a look:. Much less "celebrate". Today, we are using high tech pilot-less drones from afar to "take out" suspected/labeled "terrorists" but also innocent human beings, calling it "Politics. Collateral damage.Casualties of war.".

Just Off the One-Lane Road: Nature's Way

http://justofftheonelaneroad.blogspot.com/2012/08/natures-way.html

Saturday, August 11, 2012. At least the pool had one living soul. Little did I know that was the beginning of a population explosion. Before long I had three frogs. Soon, there were six. Lounging space among the water weeds became scarce. MM was sure I was exaggerating the numbers as I kept announcing the procession of increases. Twenty. Thirty-seven. Forty-one. Forty-one frogs had found this paradise. And then.things changed. Do garter snakes eat frogs," I asked MM. How many frogs have you got today?

Friday, September 30, 2011. Wayfarin' Stranger.you absolutely made my day. Thank you ever so much for your comment on yesterday's post. A is for Apple. I'll bet you heard that snappy bite I took out of the beauty, all the way from here! This is the BEST time of year for so many reasons. One of my top ones is the luxury of practically an endless supply of crisp, sweet apples! Today MM and I picked another of our trees clean and wound up with four five-gallon buckets! How can you beat it? See you on Monday!
