Wish you were here

Picking out the perfect postcard for the right person used to  be a big part of traveling for me.    I haven’t bought one for years; but here are a few I could have sent:

Dear V: This is the garden behind our hotel. Do you think we can re-do our backyard to look more like this?

Dear Alli: You would be able to survive in Buenos Aires. I found a Starbucks. Love, Mom

Dear Peppy: Stray cats wander through the parks here. You have no clue how good you have it....
Dear Myra: Judging by this organic fair we saw in the park, Argentina is ready for you and Earthbound Farm.
Dear Jane: Next time you're cooking one of your amazing meals--- just a suggestion for dessert......

    How wonderful that you are savoring all these wonderful experiences! How long will you be there? Must know, (since my comp has been broken): Have you had an Argentinian steak with all those glorious sauces????

    Every great cuisine seems to find a place for a simple sweetened milk dessert. Dulce de Leche in Argentina, Panna Cotta in Italy, Creme Caramel in France, Crema Catalan in Spain, Kazandibi in Turkey. The very first spoonful begins a journey back to the simpler joys of childhood pleasures … even for the most hardened adult. Look at each of those faces as they withdraw the spoon and their eyes close just a little. Then the soft smile. YES. For just that moment, all is right with the world.

    Can’t wait for someday when I can come to meet you— and send some postcards home from Rome.

    Miss you too–I think I brought one flyer in English but you will have to come yourself and bring all your organic wisdom to Argentina. Meanwhile today I actually saw some organic dulce de leche!

    Thank you; it’s been wonderful. Yes I’ve had the sauces. And in 10 days– I’ve eaten more steak than I would normally eat in a year.

    I guess I’ve had similar tastes but right now I’m like a kid in a candy store. Heavenly.
