In Rome for the month of August (and the majority of the
summer, for that matter) I have taken refuge in a new construction (i.e. fabulous
renovation property) less than a 10 minute walk from my Garbatella
apartment. Taken refuge thanks to the
adequate temperature of the air conditioning… but I must say equally because of
the wonderful atmosphere… that said, let me edit by adding (between the hours
of 10 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.), before the masses of gente converge in this new world called Eataly.
In fact I am here this morning, as my trusty Acer posts
10:50 a.m., sitting in the Caffé Vergano, savoring a chocolate croissant and a
perfectly cocoa dusted marocchino all
while Pavarotti serenades me with Nessun
Dorma. Yes, I am in Italy,
but specifically at Eataly.

It is now 12:50
p.m. and I have moved on to a perfectly chilled glass of Bollicine di Prosecco
and extra crunchy Kettle chips, all Made in Italy. More tomorrow...
