We decided not to go to the market today, as it was drizzling this morning, and we needed wine (the one thing the Wednesday market doesn't sell).

Chestnut roasters?  He wasn't near the van, so I couldn't ask. Maybe I'll see him tomorrow. I got a quick response from This Old House, who I sent an email to, asking if a renovation in Sicily would be of interest to them.

They sent me some "paper" work to fill out and submit, which I'll do, but I know it's a long shot.  I cleaned our main level, during which I received a text from Stacy, my friend in Molise, who's been my "pen pal" for quite some time. We planned a phone call
