listening to french music, satisfied with lamb and potatoes with garlic.

so i've finally done it, following the many who've come before me. you know- micah, nikki, and julie powell. this is the official beginning of my blog. now of course, there cannot be (as i have learned) a healthy launch into the future without a quick look back, to solidify those reasons for creating change. so the following entries (in some random order, i'm sure) will be those i posted as facebook "notes" while in italy this past summer, where i began to cultivate my love of food writing. this of course developed into writing about the culture and life in general, so no worries if you are not one to read endless comparisons of gelato textures and flavours. yes, i am aware i wrote flavours. sometimes i like to do things more european-like. it's fun, and a bit silly and pretentious. whee. welcome and thanks for reading.
