Located less than a 100 m away from the Ponte Vecchio this centralli located trattoria is excellent value for money. You will find it on a narrow street called Via Stracciatella, to the left of Piazza di S.
I did not want to hijack Ronald's thread on Sardinia and the G8, but following a post on the same topic by Adriatica and my own commennt, I thought that it may be interesting for many to see what we are talking about.
It could be a cricket, or a locust, or a grasshopper, they are all members of the "Orthoptera" family and they can cause a lot of damage. Probably you will find a few of them around. At this stage, you can use a special insecticide; however, the buds are gone now, so you are not going to achieve much. Usually, it is better to spray just as the buds start to form. This does not mean that next year you are going to have the same problem.... this time you were just unlucky.And thank you very much, but I am not that "knowledgeable". I have only learnt through many disasters and disappointments.
Could you please explain what you saw. It sounds more like a garden gnome or some kind of creature in that line.I do not think that soapy water will be of much use.The life of a gardener was not meant to be easy. There is a bit of a masochist in all of us....
It is true, Raggio, cuts vary from country to country and I am struggling with the list I have. Some cuts are very similar, such as "girello", which is round steak or filetto (sirloin) but others are different.
There are different kinds of beetles who have one thing in common: they love roses, particularly buds! Possibly, your enemies will be amongst this lot that I found in the old forum, as we discussed this matter several times:www.hlasek.com/ccbrouci1an.htmlSoapy water, hosing down the bushes.... there are several organic methods. Otherwise, find a pyrethrum-based insecticide and play the exterminator role.Good luck!
This group is growing fast. We are 15 already! Welcome to the new members. If you have a minute, try to add a couple of words to our Wiki "Italian Culinary Terminology". You will get an idea of what we are doing simply by looking at it. A is for..... B is for..... and so on. We add the definite article in front of any nouns to help to remember gender. This was Kevan Cummins idea and it is an excellent learning help.If you want to add or correct anything, you simply press "Edit" and you do whatever you want with the list. Just follow the format. If you have any doubts, ask me; however, I must warn you that this is "virgin territory" for me as well.Besides the alphabetical order glossary, I intend to have smaller lists for meat cuts, types of pasta, anything within the topic which would require a special list. this may take years......
I have a list of cuts for pork, veal, lamb, etc. which I will have in the "Italian Culinary Terminology" glossary (Wiki) under "Il Buongustaio" Circle (group) but I am still struggling with the alphabetical list. Thanks for your additions, Kevan and please, we could go faster if everyone contributes a couple of words. It is very simple and anyone can edit it. Just press the "Edit" button, add or correct whatever you want and don't forget to save it!!! See you there!
