view on the Italian Coast of Gargano
The New York Times published its 31 flavors for 2010 and flavor number 29 is that little bump half way down the Adriatic Coast of Italy called Gargano. Mediterranean pines grow all the way to the shores making this concave part of the boot a great place to pitch a tent. Summertime beckons hoards of Italians to populate the long white beaches and family-friendly resorts of Peschici and you can bet they answer that call in the millions. The popular town of Vieste boasts a windsurf center founded by Italian waveboarder and father of the ‘cheeseroll’ maneuver Cesare Cantagalli and his brother Sergio. Fun and sun guaranteed!

Oh Easter Tree, Oh Easter Tree …. what? Wrong holiday or wrong plant?
Nothing wrong at all, Italian creativity in holiday home decorating is the Easter tree. Making one of your own is really simple.
The tortuous branches are from a European hazelnut, a small, deciduous tree that star
ts blooming in the spring, so these were cut just before then.
Decorate as desired, we used small Easter eggs and occasional chicks and butterflies. Try some colored basket grass and spray with a little imitation dew.
- hazelnuts – also the base for Nutella
