This is "funghi porcini" time and you will find them sold fresh everywhere. A great time to enjoy them. There are many ways to prepare them: sauces, garnishes, omelettes, pasta....

Further to previous posts and threads, I did not get an answer from Admin regarding the current status for "Northern Tuscany" group... Consequently, I decided to do something different and I requested the creation of a new group...

Could anyone explain why it is not possible to access the Northern Tuscany Group? I am supposed to be its Administrator and I have not received any information regarding this.

We are just back from a n enjoyable week in Rome and I must mention the great coffee we had at Piazza Sant'Eustachio, a sort of "sanctuary" for all coffee lovers.

We were driving around Lucca when I saw at a newsagent a headline from regional newspaper "Il Tirreno" stating that the Royal couple were coming to Lucca during their honeymoon.

I travel to San Francisco, California, quite frequently as my two daughters live there. I love the city and I have always noticed its strong Italian influence.

Look at insulation as well, Simrose. It is not only having the right system for your house. The loss of energy can prove very expensive.
You are doing a great job, Badger. I must say that it is not easy to raise a leveret or a young rabbit. ONe of our daughters has been a volunteer at "Save a Bunny! for quite a while and babies are difficult to raise. You will find plenty of information and help on the Internet. On the other hand, keep in mind that it will be practically impossible to release it into the wild, as raising it by hand and getting it used to human contact will change it into a domestic animal. It would not last one hour into the wild. In any case, you are doing a wonderful thing and I wish you, and the leveret, lots of luck. Please keep us posted.
It would be advisable to get three quotes before deciding.
There is a lot of information from past threads if you enter the words "wifi modem" located at the top of the page, on your right. Last year, I purchased a WIFI modem from TIM and I am very happy with the results. I must say that our house fits your description.
Local shops that sell domestic appliances should also be able to offer them or point you in the right direction. They also install them.
When we purchased our property, it had central heating, water heater and gas cooker all conected to gas bottles. I hated it! We quickly converted to mains gas and it is most convenient and safe. It is cheaper too. We had to pay for the conversion, but we consider it worthwhile. We also improved insulation to make the place more energy efficient.
The dinamic duo in action again!!! Where are the rest of the cronies? Do not bother to answer. The matter is closed. Finito!

Italy has the largest number of World Heritage sites and attractions in the world. You will find plenty of information at www.tripadvisor.com or doing a Google search. As for where to move in Italy... it is a tough choice
Gothic revival in America followe similar movements in Europe and lasted longer than in the continent It was not restricted to the reproduction of antique pieces, but it also included fantasy based elements. This piece is an example, as it adds neo-classical elements (sphynx). To like it or not... is a matter of personal taste. There are quite a few collectors of this style in America.A google search using the words "gothic revival furniture" will give plenty of information. You will also find some pieces through www.1stdibs.com
