After a week filled with long days of playing music, today was a much earned day of rest for my girl!
Mass at the Duomo once again, followed by a quick stop at Chanel, which is of course where you get all the best recommendations for local favorite eateries (the guy assisting me went so far as to walk us to his favorite spot to ensure we got a table). After savoring the best caciò e pepè to ever pass my lips, followed by a cheesecake alla cioccolatto and cappuccino, it was off to get Scarlett her favorite Italian dolce, a bomboloni! In case you aren’t familiar, it’s the decadant combination of a light and airy donut, split open and then filled with gelato, and drizzled with nutella. We may well have been best to head back to the Duomo for confession but instead opted for a little more shopping then a much needed pennichella. I’d like to claim the nap was hard earned too but that is sort of pathetic;) But what else is one to do to escape the scorching afternoon heat of Florence in August?
Ciaò!
