Lemon picking

Bryan (BOB), Erica and Riva are visiting this week. Bob and I asked Rosalba, our landlady, if we could pick some fruit from their massive garden.

Sweet as she is (we had a 45 minute conversation where she invited us to her daughter's birthday party, to pick grapes in September, and to a cooking lesson), Rosalba told us to take what we wanted, then to check out her husband's wine cellar and help ourselves to a bottle of wine.

We found massive lemons, mandarines, rosemary and Italian melons.

         

We leave tomorrow for Sicily. It's been an amazing week! More photos to come...
