Todmorden :: Incredible Edible project

Da ormai tre anni una cittadina dello West Yorkshire è diventata il primo orto sociale, ove molti aiutano a piantare e prendersi cure delle piante, verdure e frutti... e dove in molti favoriscono, raccolgo e si cibano chilometro zero. La comunità offre corsi in ortocultura e agricoltura, e stimola i giovani ad una carriera agricola, insegna a prendersi cura di un pollaio e a cucinare....

magic New Zealand ... new ideas

Little naive New Zealand has allways great big ideas. It's such a romantic concept! In my mind there should be plenty space for cycling in aech city or Country, as a slow stroll and your own space not to worry about faster cars, gives you time to really enjoy the surroundings... Free fruit picking is still huge... I see it before my eyes each summer, the "garbage man " stops the van right in front my neighbours apricot tree...

the art share project

My daily pick,.... for inspiration and... partecipation ! 
I am thinking of joining this one :) 
Here the project is explained as I found it on the internet :: 


"The Art Share Project is a collection of notebooks that are traded within a community of artists. When you receive a notebook you have two weeks to fill it with whatever you’d like - paintings, drawings, poetry, stories, collage, photography, dried flowers, love letters, advice, etc. When your two weeks are up you will scan or photograph what you’ve put in the notebook and it will be appear on this here blog! Then you will mail it off to the next person on the list and the magic continues."

Some goals of The Art Share Project are:

• To create a sense of community
• To share beautiful things, information and wisdom with strangers and loved ones
• To rediscover the joy in creating just for fun 
• To inspire
• To learn

... food and cooking gets my attention, most of the time! Basil is such a juicy simple plant, with a refreshing summer smell, it brightens steamy hot summer days...
Here in Italy everyone has at least one plant of Basil in the garden or on the terrace, it's part of our daily life and we all learn to use it ithe kitchen at an early age, from our mothers and friends. Basil needs lots of water ! Water it in the evening and never under the sun, otherwise the leaves will burn.
I love simple tomato salad, cut in thick slices, crushed sea salt and torn basil leaves, all generously covered in olive oil....
... but summer is actually so far away !
