Time marching on and we're only a few days away from Thanksgiving. We will celebrate two Thanksgivings (shouldn't everyone ?), one here in Naples and one with the family - this time in Virginia.
Otter sightings. They are busy looking for breakfast fish and wondering who the heck I am.
The exotic birds are a plenty around here- beautiful, graceful, and strangely grating unmusical voices.
Book list and definitely the quantity is down. Somehow finding little time - between art class, tai chi, and the historical fiction class, time blows away.
Scandal takes a Holiday by Lindsey Davis (another great one in her ancient Roman detective series), the Love Artist by Jane Alison (class reading, great story of Ovid), and Mastering the Art of Soviet Cooking; a memoir of food and longing by Anya Von Bremzen (Great book on her early life in Russia, some recipes, but really an exposé on politics, vodka, and hunger). Whew, crazy country.
And apparently I have a doppelgänger here in Naples. Twice now , I have been asked if I was so and so, or if I had been at whatever event. Hmmm, does everybody run into this?
