The Eighth Chapter

Morning at Pra di' Reto with Olinto and Alessandra

She makes everything, the bread, the jam, the cake.

How much cheese and prosciutto can a person eat?

Graganella and Pra di' Reto

after Barga we made it to Graganella just as it got dark. I am always so happy to come here as these are my good friends.

On our way from Barga to CNG we saw this woman in the middle of nowhere in the road. She had a bright red dress on with a shocking pink patent leather handbag....coiffed blonde hair. It was dusk. She seemed so out of place. ( I see now there is a bus stop) ...I had to get a shot...while driving. There is something very arty about this scene...like she could be Cindy Sherman. ( if you know what I mean)

I feel bad now that we didn't pick up this woman and bring her home.

Where is Barga?

All about Ugly Betty!

Poor Betty. She had a tough life. She was used to breed and kept in a small cage. He back is all out of shape. She is very very sweet and mellow...I think happy to have so much love. It's a shame her mother gave her a not too nice name and also says she's not so smart. I thought she was lovely.

She's heard it all before.

Dinner in Barga

I have been to Barga a few times. The last time I had such a nice simple meal with my friend B and J...I thought perhaps we could catch the sunset in Barga and have dinner and some wine.

I cannot find the name of this place.

There was one table left outside , luckily. We ordered some cheese and meat...with bread and some red wine. It was very nice.

What is a Spuntineria? I cannot seem to find a definition.
