Have you ever had heaven in your glass?

Some say you only remember wines made by the heart similar to yours…

I am not sure if it is true but in some way I feel that Moscato d'Asti is very close to my heart.

Moscato d'Asti is wine produced in Italy, in Asti district from 100% Moscato Bianco. 

It is rather low in alcohol, semi-sparkling and has a great fresh taste.

I have tasted Moscato d'Asti from La Spinetta and I really fell in love [for more details: La Spinetta]

How about we apply wallpaper to…?

Wallpaper is a kind of material used to decorate or cover interior walls of home. It is said that first wallpapers were used in China, where people glued rice paper sheets to the walls. In Europe they started to be widely known in the Renaissance.

The Sinatra soul in the City that never sleeps

52nd Street is called Swing Street or Swing Alley, thanks to the jazz clubs and colorful street life between 1930 and 1950. Every big jazz star had played there at least once. 

52nd Street is a 1.9 mile (around 3 km) long and goes from east to west in midtown Manhattan.

Now… in Sinatra words:

"If I can make it there, I'll make it anywhere

It's up to you – New York, New York..."

If your dog doesn't has a muttropolis profile…

…{some may say} it not exist. Let see if we need to make and keep friendships via on-line communities, why not allow our dog best-friends do the same [muttropolis community]. 

We need to admit that some of the members are very shy…community buddy

I have to admit…

…I fell in love with some fabulous cooking styles.

For what is worth I started my mental journey with molecular cuisine. I invite you to look at three important books which just came to the stores this fall.

First of it (the most expensive one) "Big Fat Duck Cookbook" is a masterpiece of Heston Blumenthal. Blumenthal is a chief of the restaurant named best in the world [by Restaurant magazine] for me that explains everything (even the price). Second one "Alinea" by Grant Achatz shows laboratory designed ready to order food, made by magicians. Last one "Day at elBulli" by Ferran Adria describes process, techniques and final result of food serving at multi-award winner spanish restaurant. All the book available at Amazon.com.

Hope you like it!

Some say it has more life inside it than 10 very good novels...

"Netherland" is  9/11 type of novel. Main character – Hans is financier from Netherland. He shows strong and wide connection with all the micro and macro world problems. He stays at his place even though his wife has taken his son back to London after the attacks. We can see multiple backgrounds in this book, first – personal tragedy, second – consolation in hard times...

Intriguing....
