Dining in Italy

Standard

Italian Home

Italy is sunshine, warm earth, red wine, music and laughter. When we came home from our travels to Marche, I painted my kitchen with the same vibrant colours.

Welcome to Tea, Toast and Trivia. Thank you for listening in. Dave Astor and I are once again bridging the 3,923 kilometers between New Jersey to Vancouver. The book on top of my 2020 stack of books, is Dave Astor’s Fascinating Facts About Famous Fiction Authors and the Greatest Novels of All Time: The Book Lover’s Guide to Literary Trivia. Dave has a marvelous way of going deep to find the story that is hidden in the folds of history. In Dave’s most recent post, “More Than Zero Interest in Zero-Year Novels”, he featured some of his favorite (not necessarily the best) novels that were published in 1970, 1920, 1870, and various other years ending in that big ol’ round number of zero. Put the kettle on and add to this exciting conversation on TeaToastTrivia.com Link in on my bio. #book #creativity #daveastor #teatoasttrivia

At the Vancouver Art Gallery “I want there to be hints of narrative everywhere in the image so that people can make up their own stories about them. But I don't want to have my own narrative and force it on to them.”Cindy Sherman #art #cindysherman

First to arrive. I admire early adopters - they take the risk of beginnings. “Be willing to be a beginner every single morning.” Meister Eckhart #risk #beginnings

Fairmont Hotel, Vancouver I’m reading an excellent book and so far, there are many wonderful quotes to add to my quote library. Here is one: what matters in life is not whether we receive a round of applause; what matters is whether we have the courage to venture forth despite the uncertainty of acclaim.” Amor Towles, A Gentleman in Moscow

Remembering my visit to Emily Carr House, Victoria “It is hard to remember just when you first became aware of being alive. It is like looking through rain onto a bald, new lawn; as you watch, the brown is all pricked with pale green. You did not see the points pierce, did not hear the stab - there they are!” Emily Carr, The Book of Small. #EmilyCarr #Victoria #Resilience

Awake to joy - my Friday thought. “People say that what we’re all seeking is a meaning for life. I don’t think that’s what we’re really seeking. I think that what we’re seeking is an experience of being alive, so that our life experiences on the purely physical plane will have resonances without own innermost being and reality, so that we actually feel the rapture of being alive.” Joseph Campbell, The Power of Myth #joy #life #awake #celebrate
