First I would like to thank Earthwalking13 to nominate me; second I would like to suggest to check his blog as it has the power to inspire and sooth your soul ; third and last ,but not least, I would like to congratulate myself to answer an award so quickly for the first time.
Here are my answers :
1.) What is the title of the book you are going to write, or are currently writing, or have already written?The book is progressing but the title is still uncertain.
2.) What is your favourite magazine or periodic publication?
I am not really a big magazines reader. I am always tempted to buy them before a flight but then always ending up to quickly go through them and read a book instead.
3.) What is your favourite dessert?
Any dessert containing cream and lots of calories but my favourite of all it is “torta millefoglie”, that must not be confused with the Mille Feuille. They are similar but not the same. Unfortunately, the cake is nowadays hard to find. Probably it is considered out of fashion like the gamberetti cocktail, that I love too.
4.) If you’re doing the cooking, what’s for dinner?
homemade lasagne
5.) Who is your favourite poet?
Baudelaire and D’Annunzio.
6.) What is your favourite social media platform?
WP of course.
7.) If you could have a “do-over” in your life, what would you change?
I would leave Italy earlier and travel more before having kids.
8.) Why do you travel?
Because I like to see new places and new thing and get to know new cultures.Curiosity might kill the cat but not Ortensia.
9.) Pets?
I have dogs and wouldn’t stay without them but I like cats too as I grew up in a house full of them. My favourite animals are still bats but ….as I already said once, they are not pet material.
10.) Do you hike or camp in the wilderness and, if so, what do you like about it?
I used to hike a lot but camping has never really been my thing.A holiday in camper van instead is in my to-do list.
Bonus: If you could commit a crime, and knew you would get away with it, what would it be?
I would break in few laboratories testing on animals and free them all.
As I already said in the past I don’t nominate because I am cowardly kind and I don’t like to pick someone over someone else but I invite any of my readers to feel free to consider themselves nominated and answer the three following questions:
1-do you associate memories with smells?
2-are rules made to be broken?
3-sunrise or sunset?
Have a good week end everybody🤩
Free the lab animals: awesome ❤

It is funny ,I thought I had a list of crime or little mean acts against mean people but I actually don’t…….I must be deep inside honest or at peace….or both🤷🏻♀️but yes,those tests I can’t stand …..mainly because there would be alternatives.

Loved your answer to the favourite poet ?, “Baudelaire and D’Annunzio.” It just so happens, that in the book , Melpomene, a collection of poems edited by Gwendolyn Taunton, that Charles Baudelaire and Ivor Steven, have poems in the same chapter together, Liber Maeroris…. his is “Benediction” and mine is “This Lost Shadow”

Love your answers! Tha lasagne is tempting so does the hard-to-pronounce dessert lol. My answers to your question would be, yes i do associate smells with memories and also places; rules are absolutely meant to be broken; and torn between sunrise and sunset bcos they’re both beautiful and they serve two distinct purposes. ♥️
