The Japanese Garden
The Japanese Garden at the Brooklyb Botanic Garden is a true gem and a super attraction. On this cloudy day after a rain storm, it was very quiet but on sunny spring days it attracts many happy visitors. To mr it's the centerpiece of this beautiful garden right smack in the middle of Brooklyn.

These are very recent images shot in North East Pennsylvania where winter will not let go. What can I say- At least the images are fine for the blog.
Saint Germain des Près
The Fountain at Saint Germain des Près, Paris' oldest church provides a public space that is always very busy and entertaining. The statue in gold is actually a real person. How he can stay still in that position is hard to understand. What a way to make a living.
God eats
When I'm in Sicily I do lots of cooking. I call it DNA cooking because I go back to the old culinary roots. borrowing from the collective unconscious store of classic Sicilian recipes that have bee indelibly etched in our DNA. Simple, healthful and delicious staples that have kept us fed for centuries. Naturally this is where the Mediterranean cuisine that is all the rage today originated from.
