Every Tuesday morning I go to the nearby town, have my second breakfast, photo above, then I go to the small piazza where a friend farmer sells his organic vegetables.
When I fist moved to Italy, the only thing I missed about living in UK is Brussels sprouts; I couldn't find them anywhere until I met the young farmer who comes every Tuesday morning to nearby town to sell his organic produce. Because he is a vegetarian, he grows many veggies that Italians do not know, like Brussels sprouts (I am the only one who buys them) Jerusalem Artichokes, see photo above, Sewde, and parsnips. When it is the season, like now, every week I buy 2 kilos of Brussels Sprouts :)
And I cook with them almost the whole week; and because they are so fresh I eat them raw as well, grated and with olive oil+vinegar+salt+lemon, etc.
Last Sat this cute kitty arrived at my place; I took her to the vet and she told me she is neutered and seems to be a house cat. She is so affectionate and wants to be inside. Sadly my landlady said that she can not stay inside her house! I tried to let her stay with me but Kiwi was so nasty to her, attacking her viciously, so I couldn't keep her. I named her Isabella but call her Bella. Today I printed 10 copies with an announcement with her photo and tomorrow I'm going to hang them around the main road and nearby town. I really hope her owner would come forward because she can not live outside. :(
