Amalfi ... "When fate hands you lemons ..."


The Amalfi Coast

When life gave them lemons ...



They made ceramic tiles


plates


dishtowels


fabric handbags


soap


and of course, my personal favorite ...


LIMONCELLO!


which I had at almost every meal!




I was feeling the need for a dose of Italy today and with some crazy weather back East and around the globe I figured everybody might need a little sunshine. These were taken on my trip last May. Of course, it would be lovely to hop on a plane and be back there but until then, I might just pull my little bottle of limoncello out of the freezer, close my eyes and ... pretend for a moment that I am back on the Amalfi Coast.

Ahhh.



"When fate hands you a lemon,
make lemonade."

~Dale Carnegie

(or if fate hand you several ... make limoncello!)

Have a fantastic weekend!
