Dreaming of Italy

The amazingly beautiful colors of the buildings in Tuscany

The view from my cousin's kitchen in San Casciano, Tuscany

Dinner in the courtyard at Cigliano, my cousin's villa in San Casciano, Tuscany

Our bedroom when we stay at Cigliano

Harvest at Cigliano. We just happened to visiting when it was grape-picking time

My husband, Glenn, in the walled garden of Cigliano

Edible flowers from the garden

My husband, the chef, making salad dressing in Anna's kitchen

Lunch under the big cypress tree at Cigliano

My cousin's wine, Chianti Classico, from the estate

Glenn in the cantina, the villa's wine cellar

Roberto pouring olive oil

Cigliano in April--Glenn preparing the hearth

Lunch for Anna's friends.

I love Italy. I'm ready to start planning another trip.
