Celebrated May Day in the Tuscan countryside with 26 other Italian women. We gathered flowers, lay them on an altar and threw the Motherpeace Tarot cards.
Left the beautiful retreat center yesterday. Lucia, a Florentine, also at the retreat, drove me into Florence. Nic and I are staying in the White apartment--all white, light and airy--high ceilings. There is a little balcony off the living room with a table and chair. I sat there this morning for my breakfast. We had our first language class, also, this morning. Very humbling to be a student again, learning a new language. I was exhausted after 2 hours. We had lunch, went back to the apartment to wait for Alessandro ( apt. owner) to show up because the wifi was not working. A no show.
Ah, it was time for our first cooking class, about a mile away. The sky opened up and poured, but Nic and I perservered on. And it was a damn good thing....
What did you learn to cook today?
