The good news is, I just made reservations that coincide with plan B, at a reasonable price, at good location in the CBD, just a couple of blocks from Canal.

Prime viewing spots “are now essentially sold off by restaurants, bars, and hotels. Locals who live along the Giudecca Canal struggle to keep a place for themselves.” Instead of battling the crowds, the family has started attending humbler commemorations in a village on the mainland...

Starting in the 15th century, many of the Republic’s territories were seized by the Ottoman Turks, while maritime powers like the Dutch and Portuguese charted new trade routes to Asia. The business of spectacle emerged as a way to counter the erosion of traditional revenue streams.

Although separated from the ISKCON temple, she remained – and remains – vegetarian. “I worked in bars and dining rooms” where sarde in saor and fritto misto were staples. “Handling fish and meat wasn’t easy, but I learned a great deal.”

The Man Who Shortened Livingroom Valance
Meh. I bought some valances to give the living room a bit more finished look. The sage matches the ikea Roman blinds perfectly. But they are way too long for the height of my walls.
As a kid in the 70s, I have T-pins for knot tying (aka macrame). They are now being used to shorten these things. 🤣

“Food took on a new intimacy. I discovered the warmth and creativity of home cooking. Their meals showed me how memory, migration, and personal taste weave together into living tradition. That realization was liberating. For the first time, food felt expansive rather than restrictive”.
