Soon it will be some Japanese elm branches.

Firenze e Lucca: end of May trip
This is my favorite photo -- had a print made. Olio di semi e oliva. Just off the Piazza Passera, Oltrarno, Florence.
Baroque anything is such a rarity in Florence, so I was surprised by this -- the court house.
Bought these lemon yellow linen-cottone jeans by Trussardi. From a delightful old shop on the Borgo San Jacopo, just off the madness of the Ponte Vecchio. Lemon yellow: who would have thought?
Boboli garden.
In Lucca. Throw a stone and you can hit 3 churches.
Loved Lucca. Here, San Michele cathedral.
Florence, off the Piazza Passera.
Simone Abbarichi tailor shop, window. Mi piace il colore.
The outside of the shop, Santa Sprito Borgo Apostoli. Also the chic street of the hotel I stayed in, the Torre Guelfa.
Piazza Limbo, just off Borgo Apostoli. Ubiquitous terra cotta planters.
Dinner at Baldovino. Coniglia, and the contorne is an asparagi e formaggio souffle.

Il Chiudo, or: The New Sun Room
Spring Project: redecorating the former, unused sun room into a sitting room that we now use nightly for cocktails, reading, sitting and listening to music. I lacquered the pine walls in deep black, hung gold raw silk curtains, rolled out a sisal rug, borrowed and borrowed a console table from storage.
Staffordshire style lamp.
Italian toleware sconse.
