@sachbon Pressed yesterday with olives from two neighbours, in a place that allows small batches. Almost half the amount oil extracted from the same weight of olives as last year (9% this year). Too much water in the olives, apparently. But, luckily, it tastes absolutely divine.🫒

So here ends my week of writing & a couple of days of picking olives. Off to Rome tomorrow for workshop on Geografia Democratica. 😃

#BookReview How optimistic or delusional does a 25-yr veteran of publishing have to be to open a tiny bookshop up on a steep hill in an Italian Tuscan village of 180 people? Poet Alba Donati did just that in December 2019 and this is her account of returning to her childhood home and setting up a perfect little gem of a bookshop, and the ups and downs of it all. She's an embracer of life and a people person, and if this book is anything to go by, a force of nature. The diary entries flit back and forth in time, jump from what's happening with the shop to stories about the characters who make up her large family and the villagers. She writes eloquently about the mountainous landscape she loves, and the books she cares passionately about. It's catnip for readers who can't resist a book about books.

#OnThisDay in #history - in 1479 Lisa del Gherardini was born into the noble Gherardini family of #Tuscany and #Florence. Though noble, her family wasn't super wealthy, but she lived a comfortable life.
In her teens, she wed a man much older than herself, but it seems as though she was happy with the marriage.
They had 5 children together.
To celebrate their good fortune, in 1503, her husband commissioned a portrait from Leonardo da Vinci. She was Mona Lisa.

Our #Medium work is paywall liberated!

A watercolor painting by artist Roxanne Steed of an autumn field at the Connecticut Audubon Center in Pomfret, CT.  

The scene shows a meadow of beautiful rolling hills in the foreground with successions of receding tree lines in background, whose distance is indicated by the atmospherics of the day.  

The color palette includes a variety of greens, mauves, and yellows typical of Northeast Connecticut at the cusp of Fall.  The focal point is slightly left of center at the top 1/3 of the painting where the hills intersect with the dark tree line; the point of greatest value contrast.  

The meditation for this picture  is about the frantic and serene  nature of Autumn, both as a season of nature and as a season of human life.
