Chiuso per ferie

Questo week-end sarò, per dirla con le parole di una dei miei deliziosi ospiti, a Fossato* (non di Vico) Cantagallo (non quello sull’autostrada dell’appennino) Prato (quello vicino a Firenze, non l’altro).

Vedrò amici, parlerò con gente, starò in compagnia.

Ci ritroviamo al mio ritorno. Nel frattempo, lascio la porta aperta: curiosate pure.
