Yesterday was a holiday here in Italy, May Day, and we were lucky to have a day off to break up the week. We slept in, had grilled cheese for breakfast, a simple tuna nicoise salad for lunch then set off to the hills for a 2.5 hour hike. It was the perfect weather for the hike, just warm enough to wear shorts and a t-shirt with enough shade and a little sun. The best part of the day was having a gelato at my favorite gelateria in the area, Dolce Crema, in the town square of Maranello. Dinner soon followed with a a two-day dry brined fresh sage turkey breast with homemade gravy and steamed green beans followed by a baked apple oatmeal dessert. We finished the day while A put on The Skin I Live In, (he is in a Pedro Almodovar kick right now) and I finished ironing a never-ending pile of shirts.
