My mother's garden









My mother keeps me in touch with the country side by sending me occasional ranch updates like the following:

"A quick trip to the garden for rosemary, basil, bunch onions and arugula... my hands are filled with the scents of summer. In the kitchen, I chop zucchini and tomatoes from a farmer's market trip. Sauteed in olive oil, the kitchen fills with the aroma of good things grown with love."

I must add that Annalisa herself took this photo in Moneglia this summer. We set up a still-life in the front yard and passed an afternoon arranging pine nuts and basil leaves for the camera. Good times.
