Today I have done something wonderful! I have a treasure in the fridge, a treasure that fills it completely with its wonderful smell! Yes, yes, I have bought four little white truffles! I went to Pistoia to get some things for my Euro Blogging By Mail parcel that I have to send in a couple of days and, passing by one of my favourite food shops, I decided to buy some truffle because we deserve it, me and Marco! Doubt that the children want to taste it but if they want to, they are welcome. I wasn’t much impressed the first time I tried white truffles but the second time I was hooked and now I almost swoon when I feel the scent! Because it’s a scent, not a smell. The blue velvet you see in the photo is a new dress of mine and I really hope the scent of the truffles remains, what a wonderful perfume! So now the stock is simmering in the kitchen because tonight we’re having risotto con tartufo bianco for dinner. It’s so simple, you make a normal risotto and then you just grate the truffle over it just before you eat. I think there will remain some so I think I will make homemade tagliatelle with truffles tomorrow! How nice it is to live sometimes!
In the photos you can see a little bit of the old part of Pistoia, I’ll be back with more in the near future!

I have become the a bad blogger because I either forget or I don't have the time to answer your comments but that does not mean that I don't read or appreciate them, quite the opposite really. The generosity that shines through what you write and the fact that you take the time to comment on my posts makes my blogging worthwhile so Thank You for what you do for me and please keep on commenting!
