My Fall

I know I am a little late to welcome the fall.  I am also lagging on posting here, but for good reason.  Wine and Food and Dogs.  I am really busy tasting wine, making food and working in rescue, and I have neglected my blog.  We just passed the grape harvest and the making of the new wines.  Right now we are picking olives for olive oil.  Here are some photos of what has been going on.

Ettore and I tried La Margutta a veg restaurant in Rome:  Great Food!

Sadly, this is one of two dogs we rescued this summer.  He is getting better but he is looking for his forever home.  TITO!

I can't believe this comes from out land!

I am pretty happy with myself! This will be made into oil in a day or so.

Bavetta is a beauty (as are the other beings and plants too). :-)
