A Nice Mention
Newsflash: Remodeling still going on and Sprog #2 has not shown his face yet.
Amber tagged me for this post. Do I feel I am nice? Am I a good person? I have always thought that I am. I hate to self promote so I won't but in my heart of hearts I know I am a loving mom, wife, sister, daughter and friend. There are so many ways to express kindness I think. One can volunteer to hold babies in the NICU, cook a meal at a homeless shelter, pick up garbage in your neighborhood on Earth Day, send a card to someone you love or like, make a donation to a charity, the list goes on and on.
Over the years I have tried not to be too negative about my life in Italy as a foreigner. I opened myself up to making new friends and now I miss them all terribly. I guess the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence. Still I have so much to be grateful for. Thank you Amber for making me remember all these wonderful blessings in my life.

You are so very welcome! And you are so terribly missed here. But you are right, no matter where we find ourselves we need to focus on the wonderful things we have in our lives to be grateful for. Baci e abbracci!
My dear I am thinking of you constantly these days....I know it will be any minute now! We in Torino miss you so much....know that you are missed, loved, and very much in our thoughts!!!!
Gina, you are a wonderful and inspirational person and are VERY missed here in Turin. I am in awe of how you manage to stay in touch with everyone via email, phone AND handwritten letters when I can barely do any of these! I owe you many emails, letters, and phone calls at this point but please know that I am thinking of you and miss you lots as a friend. I will give you a call this week; the time difference between Seattle-Torino makes it inconvenient to find a good time to call! xo to all of you, Shilpa

Tuscany is a majestic, enchanting place. Where else can you drink wine relaxing in the vineyard it was grown, sleep in historic villas, and learn to cook from master chefs. Take a look at some of my photos at http://www.tuscanway.com/tuscany/photos/. Enjoy!
