  4. Grapes are so lovely the way they cluster. I wish I liked the taste of them better. I like the idea of eating grapes more than actually eating them.

    Sometimes I dream in Italian, too!! LOVE these photos from Florence. And, you know?.....I just got an email today from my cousin who is studying art in Sweden and he's headed to Florence today for an art show there and to spend a long weekend. Is the universe speaking to me? Maybe I need to go buy a ticket to Italy for Spring Break! If only.....

    Happy Friday!

  10. Seems as if you have awakened many beautiful dreamers, Merisi.

    Your collection of red chairs and your capturing of the rosy blue painted sky are equally magnificent.

    Thank you!

  11. That was fun Merisi. I think the laundry hanging out to dry looked more like the house was pretily decorated.

  17. Ah - love this post. So many wonderful images (and YES! to the gelato!)

    My husband goes on business trips to the southeast corner of Italy (fairly industrial) - which is apparently the only not-to-die-for part of the country - else I would go with him...

  19. Thank you all so much for your kind comments! I think I managed to get at least a peak, if not leaving a comment on all but a few of your blogs, instead of thanking everybody here. I leave this little note to tell you how much I appreciate that you take the time to leave all these kind comments.
    In less than 24 hours I shall hopefully be in Venice, if I manage to get my papers sorted out and my carry-on packed that is.
    Wishing you all a wonderful weekend,
    Merisi

  20. Ahhh, Merisi....I've been away too long. My Italian heritage makes me homesick looking at your beautiful photos!

  21. Beautiful photos. Oddly, I am hungry now.

  22. Sigh. You've only roused all the Italophile in me which I've been working so hard to douse! I love Tuscany, one of my most favourite places!
    Gorgeous, dreamy pics, Merisi!

  23. All great Merisi, the steps extraordinary! I want to walk up there.
