Oh Julia. You do make spring seem possible! I forgot to ask whether you want to go to the pepper place this year. Or maybe I asked and you said you didn’t know. It’s going to be late this year. The week of May 19 so we won’t have to hold the plants indoors at all. Let me know.
Thank you so much for picking up the little peppers. I’ll plant the day I get back, and bless you that I’ll have those magnificent little peppers, whose botanical name I’ve forgotten once again.

This is a lovely card. It has been so nice following your wonderful blogs from Italy, rappini, and all sorts of incredibly interesting culinary art.

Grazie, gracias, Peter. Here’s to you and your wonderful work with the mesquite project.
Ciao Julia
A magnificent card!! Buona Pasqua!!
Grazie! I hope you had a holiday at least as equal to my greeting, Giorgio.
Buona Pasqua to you and Nate, Julia. The Lambscape is a gem.
Thank you, Maureen. I can only imagine your Pasquetta is continuing today. Beata te!
