It started with a photo. My grandparent’s wedding photo. I always had a sense that we were different. My mother’s parents had a funny accent when they spoke English and they talked real loud. My friends couldn’t understand our grandfather. I was used to it and explained that my Pop-Pop was Italian and that he…

A recent quick trip to Sydney
A quick trip to Sydney is always a treat, but never long enough to catch up with everyone. When I went at the end of September I was fortunate enough to slip in a bit of Art! With iPhone in hand I roamed the streets of Sydney and hit the Art Gallery of New South…

A two month break from posting is a long time for me. So what’s been going on in my life to cause this? Hmmm…perhaps it’s my current obsession with taking pictures on Instagram. Add that to my obsession with all things Italian, my study of la bella lingua, my day job at the documentation factory,…

Relief because I need my beauty rest and sadness because the end of the festival season means the long summer evenings are soon to be gone. The Adelaide Fringe and Womadelaide are events I participate in each…
The return of Fu Fu the cat
We have a lovely, timid neighbourhood cat whose name we do not know. We call him Fu Fu because of his panda-like appearance. Think Wang Wang, Shi Shi or Yang Yang. Fu Fu comes to our garden to see our cats most days. But for the last three or four weeks we had not…
View from South Road tram bridge
I volunteer after hours with the Adelaide Fringe helping build floats and props for the opening night parade. Riding my bike home over the tram bridge last evening I was treated to this great view.
