We were invited to the hamlet of Vena Piccola, population 6, to have pranzo alla brace (cooked over the fire) with our friends. The drive up the hillside was slow going over the snow-covered roads, and we had to dodge a downed tree at one point. But once we were above Ascoli Piceno we entered a true winter wonderland. Feast your eyes. Bellissima, no?
In case you can't see clearly, those are olive trees and grapevines that are lurking under all that snow!

It snowed here too in Toronto, Ontario Sat and Sun. We got about 25 cm and basically I spend Sunday shoveling! Tis the season...
looks somewhat like my view here in Maine! We got 1 foot yesterday on top of what was already down.
Strange to think of these as pics from Italy (even though I used to ski the Alps as a child)!
Stay warm!
So pretty! Buone feste!
