Louis IV breaks cover



Recently purchased in Rome, Jean’s new handbag was spotted on the train trip from Rome to Firenze. For collectors, it is an Artsy MM design in the Damir Azure pattern.

Home cooked Carbonara

One of the things we love to do on holiday is cook. Dishes that makes use of local ingredients can’t be beaten and when we spent a few days in a villa, the apron comes out.

When it was time to cook at Il Diaccino we assembled the ingredients for a Carbonara and Jean went to work. Local fresh Pici pasta and pancetta, fresh parmigiano reggiano cheese, black pepper, egg and a little cooking.

It tasted as good as it looked.
