You have a wonderful way with words, and a gift for writing that brings everything to life! And your photography is perfection! Because of your unbeatable combination of talents, I find myself trying to eat my computer screen all too often when I visit your blog...LOL!!!!Thank you for your lovely note...I am glad you returned in spite of my Blogger glitches with the comments!!! I am also so glad to know that you will be taking a hiatus soon as well as I was truly mourning my absence from your beautiful blog...now I can rest easy, knowing that we both will be having a fabulous break, and that I won't miss many of your terrific posts! Have a fantastic time with family in the U.S! I'll very much look forward to catching up with you when you return!!!! Love to you my friend! Cheers!

And yes, you depict the Piemontesi very well: 'sweet, guileful and overly polite'. I'd also add they are the only Italians to have qualities similar to those of the English. The cunning of the Neapolitans, with an English touch, and a taste for la cuisine à la francaise: a potent mix.<br /><br />As for chocolate, ça va sans dire, but I will not repeat the orgasm 'm' once more.
