Dreamy Sunday~

~ Dining al fresco~
~ My Honda Metropolitan ~


It's that time again. When the days are warm enough to get out on my scooter- the days that I'm not feeling the cycling-love, the days that I just want to zip along and feel the breeze on my face.... and pretend, if only for an hour or so- that I am breezing along the dirt roads, lined with huge yellow sunflowers, on my way to a quaint vineyard.

And will return with two wonderful bottles of local pinot grigio- perfect for a warm day and a light dinner served al fresco~ among the olive trees.

Or just maybe thinking locally and traveling down Rt. 202 between Winthrop and Monmouth- among the apple orchards- with a dream...

  6. Debra - how lively you are that you have a scooter! I would love to accompany you for some Panzanella salad, wine and fresh fruit. Yummy!

  7. We too are really enjoying the warm and delightful weather up here. I am NOT a winter girl (yes I am not in denial that I live in Alaska) so the warmth of the sun is so delicious on these chilly bones. Dogs are loving it too.

    PS You stumped me!!! I could not figure out your license plate shorthand on my blog......... xoxo

  12. That just sounds like heaven!!

    It may surprise you but I have fantasies of Maine!! - From one ideal, magic summer I think I've romanticized Maine as well... think... 'Blueberries For Sal'... living on an island a'la 'One Morning In Maine'... lobster, lighthouses, camp songs and bug juice - summer nights on the lake, & romance - all these things rolled up into one happy fantasy for me to reflect on!! And Italy is another story altogether!!! Pretty powerful stuff fantasies are!
