Enoteca Italiana
If you enjoy wine — and really, isn’t that almost a requirement to visit or live here? — then at some point you’re going to want to find a nice wine store. Whether you’re visiting or living here, it’s one of those important things to know. G and I highly recommend Enoteca Italiana on the wonderfully named Via Malcontenti, not far from Via Indipendenza. It’s … Continue reading Enoteca Italiana
Another Flamingo in Bologna?
While Charlie and I were out walking this afternoon, he was sightseeing with his nose, and I was sightseeing with my eyes. Both of us had plenty to enjoy.

But still, it is Friday and it’s hard not to feel a little celebratory. The other week, we stopped at Fabrik for an aperitivo before dinner. They had a decent … Continue reading Foto Friday: Cin Cin
Foto Friday: Walking Potatoes
From year to year with my Utrecht blog, I’d do a Foto Friday series. They were either photos that I really liked, but just didn’t have much to say about, or they were photos that weren’t so great, but they amused me for some reason or another. I feel like starting that again. Today’s foto falls under the latter category. It was a quick shot … Continue reading Foto Friday: Walking Potatoes
