 A car tires dump in West Virginia. Frightening.


Borlotti beans with dandelions, Very nutritious and healthy. I soaked the beans overnight in cold water with a little baking soda. I only used a clove of garlic and some chopped scallions. Simple and delicious. In Italy these beans are the most popular and widely used especially for pasta e fagioli.

                   A well pampered dog at Corvallis, Oregon. What else can I add but lucky dog.


 An all zucchine pasta dish. Pappardelle with zucchine pesto and fried zucchine. Heavenly.

 Court yard in lovely Ravenna where all the orchestra string instruments originated. As for the food, just spectacular; for example, the risotti are to die for.
