I’m back from Lucca comics & games, one of the biggest comics, games and cosplay fair in the world, I had so much fun and I met old friends walking about 10 miles a day.

I ended my long week end in Florence where I had a nice dinner with my blogger friend Berenice at The goose bistro, a cozy and lovely bistro in the heart of the city nex to the dome owned by a Scottish guy I know.

I had the chance to taste haggis, I liked it so much!

After a wonderful but rainy week end in Ljubljana I’m back, not rested but happy! 🙂

Douring the next weeks I’ll have no time to cook and take pictures but I have photos of this and three more recipes so I only have to write.

While I was away I became, for the first time, an aunt: I’m so happy and I want to congratulate Francesca and Pietro and the small and beautiful Samuele.

If this year I’m going to Ljubljana, last year I was in Munich; it wasn’t my first time there, Munich is quite popular place for Italians, but going there with my friend Elisabetta, a deep lover of Germany and Bavaria was a completely different thing.

I discovered lovely German place where to eat, I could wander around Viktualienmarkt, I could see any shop and any gourmet place around.

Halloween, my favourite feast, is coming and this year I would like to post something themed as usual but this October I’m very busy with beautiful things, I’m going to Ljubljana with my sisters and to Lucca Comics & Games ( our Comicon to explain briefly) with friends so I decided to give a scary flair to a recipe I have to do for our monthly  Bloggalline’s ( a foodblogger group) recipe exchange.

This month I made a recipe from Zucchero and Cannella, Gabriella’s blog, full of nice things, expecially bread and sweets.

 I never throw food away, if it happens is because what I’ve done is awful beyond any possibility to save it or eat it: it seldom occurs but it can happen.

Lately I’ve done some zucchini and fresh cheese patties taken from a magazine which, once baked, were slimy and smelled so bad I had to put everything in the trash can.

I want spend some words on all the recipes I’ve taken through the years from magazines, even high level magazines, which turned out epic fails.

I remember a chocolate and coffee cake good only for walls’ building.
