Oktober recipe

We're back to cold evenings.
There is nothing better than some pumpkin cut into large chunks.
Saute garlic in trusted Gragnano oil, chilli pepper, a drop of wine from Gragnano strawberry grapes  pressed by hand and unfiltered.
Fall pumpkin and let it "to drown" for fifteen minutes.
I do not eat meat, but a piece of country sausage would not hurt.
Turn off the radio or TV and sit comfortably at the table.
A bit of fresh bread, a glass of red Gragnano wine, of course, and enjoy your meal.

The knots are linking up

The last week I created a new account on Facebbok since I had a great unsolved problem with my old one.
Adding friends, I found my cousin Ulysses to which I gave a painting of mine as a wedding gift.
He posted yesterday a photo of that my last work before quitting painting for thirty years.
Great emotion, how to review a lost child ...

October

Among the prophecies of the end of the world and refugees left drowning in the Mediterranean, without lifting a finger, we got again a day of S, Francesco.
Best wishes to this Pope, and God will help him play better and better his mission.
A new dawn has arisen on the mouth of the Sarno and the ruin of this wonderful river is not at all stop.
This is always the football field where we played as kids.
