"Love Letters From La Pineta" by Dailygood Volunteer Jane Jackson Is More Than a Book -- It Is a Living Gesture of Love That Wings Its Way Between the Visible and Invisible world. a Book That Embodies Hospitality in Its Deepest sense. For

field after field of sunflowers. It was startling and thrilling to see so much yellow, your favorite color, a sure sign of your presence. We found Angelo setting up for Il Mercatino, a used books and other goods sale to benefit the town, and Elio whom I met last year passed us on the street. They both gave me warm welcoming hugs. Rossano and I then walked a little ways into la pineta and caught each other up on our lives. I am so grateful for his continued friendship and our ability to really connect. Then we went to Lerma to the pizzeria where last year we met Ruslan, the pizza maker from Belarus. He seemed to remember me when I said I was Jane from New Jersey and that I had taken his photo last year when he asked me to make him famous on facebook. I had the same pizza I did last year, called Jasmin pizza, which is by now tradition in honor of our sweet Jasmine.  

With Love,
