Blog - reports from the forest

What a beautiful Sunday with friends! Today I was reached by some friends, all day in the field, we planted the lavender, the various types of raspberries and currants.
Alone is not bad because it you get lost in the peace of the country, with a background the cheep of birds and few tractors here and there in the distance, but in company time passes more quickly, between the stories of new conquests and philosophical considerations about conferences in which someone has participated ... my friends are a bit 'crazy like me, the interesting topics never fail.
Sunday, for example, Paolo told us of a matriarchal culture in China ... "In the province of Yunnan, women have the monopoly of authority and administer the economy, marriage does not exist, love is practiced freely and without constraints of cohabitation. Shortly after puberty women receive a room, where they can choose to let the man they want, for one time or for months and years, "I found written on the newspaper. Long live to the Chinese matriarchs!

The day was pleasantly warm but in the morning the breeze is still fresh and pungent, ideal for working in the country. But the best moment (at least for the people who come to help me) is the lunch offered :) with a great rosé served cool ... wonderful! It is worth to sweat a bit '.

Obviously I'm not a slaver so, after lunch, was a little drive in the country in La Morra to get ice cream looking at the view of the belvedere and a coffee at Vigne Bio, an organic wine bar run by my cousin Severino.

When the heat is tempered we returned to the field for the last plants to be placed and we ended the day with an aperitif in one of the many cute cafes in Monforte!
What a beautiful Sunday, thanks friends!
