I'm in the mood for some hearty comfort food… Na.. Na.. not Khichdi – something more indulgent – perhaps Italian. And in no mood to drive. Well then, if you can't go to Italy, you'll have to bring Italy home.

How about some Italian Home cooking - "Cucina casalinga" - perhaps Lasagna?? And while nothing comes for free – today's desire implies spending the whole forenoon in the kitchen.

And Finally - a hot, bubbling cheesy delight fresh out the oven...laden with fragrant herbs and veggies, slowly simmered in a tomato sauce & some Red wine to go with it... Just perfect on this cold winter day!!

And over Espresso, Vin Santo and Lukas's homemade Cantuccini we laze away the afternoon

Dolce far niente...

While some of us have to walk to catch the Sun,

some others are lucky enough to Bask in the Glorious Sun, where they are...

Since Nov end, the Sun has bid our home a goodbye and gone into Winter Hibernation.

For the last 6 weeks, the Sun's orbit has been too low on the horizon to hit our home on a slope with Pine trees rising on the South side.

It isn't too bad really, one can always walk 5 minutes from home to catch some Sun.

It's ~10:30AM and as i step outside for a walk, I'm overjoyed to see a bit of Sunshine on the Roof. Yeah!!! This calls for celebration. From today onwards, everyday there's going to be more Sunlight on the Roof, entering our Home through some windows here and there. Wow!!! can't wait for it.

I take a photo to mark the occasion and Surprise - Surprise - The Moon is still visible in the Sky and is right above the Sunny patch on the Roof as a guiding beacon!
