Thanks for the recommendation of The Last Kingdom. I wasn't at all familiar with it and will look it up. Loved this post -- I think no one does opulence better than the Italians, especially of that period. And I'm not sure anyone does food better than the Italians, either! So this was a most "delicious" post in every way!
Thank you Jeanie for your kind words. As far as The Last Kingdom goes, this is one of the better, and most interesting, I think, tv-series about the foundation of England, and the fight between the Saxons and the Vikings. I was not over enthusiastic about the first couple of episodes, but then it took off and got better and better.
Yes, the Italians. Must be the best food ever. The Italians know how to make things beautiful. Or, maybe one should say, in the old days. Today they fight with a lot of problems, and the greatness of old days might not be there. But for the culture, food and other things making life beautiful they are masters.
Thank you so much for following and commenting. It is much appreciated, and also boost my own insecurities.
