A beautiful cold sunny day today, we walked into town and found a little craft market, the Christmas tree is up in the square and the ice rink around it almost ready. Hike to the upper castle - great views from the trail to the top. The sunshine felt good. Have a great Sunday! #photography

Wild stuff I missed in the US headlines, the Italian Repubblica is reporting vance and Usha are headed for a divorce. 😲
Not a big fan of the newspaper - righ leaning - but they are usually correct when they publish and often ahead of the US news.

When you've lost the right wing Italians and the Germans know what's going on. 🤷

I love and admire Ben for many reasons, and one of them is how perfectly he is able to distill the pathetic-ness of the right and instill hope and solidarity in everyone else around him.

Anyway, go read his interview with the biggest Spanish newspaper here: english.elpais.com/technology/2...
Ben Collins, from ‘The Onion’: ‘The powerful have a revenge fantasy, it’s the revenge of the dorks’
The CEO of the leading US satirical website explains what to do when reality is crazy, and how he is trying to buy the website of a famous conspiracy theorist

It's a cold rainy day today, managed a morning walk but most the day cleaning. To warm up the house I made corn bread, turned out to be my best one yet. Added a little extra butter. The preheated cast iron pan give a great crust. 25 minutes in the oven. Fast and easy. 😋

Afternoon walk into town and up to the upper castle. It's always a great little walk up, gets steep but the views are nice. Keeps me in shape. Christmas tree and ice rink are going up in the square, strange for such a warm day. Enjoy your Saturday. #photography #Italy
