Prosciutto/ham – in wikipedia
I loooove prosciutto!!! 🙂
Wikipedia says
“Monte San Savino was one of the first urban settlement in Tuscany, Italy.
It originated around 1100, but a further century had to pass before Monte San Savino
could be considered a centre of a certain social, political and
cultural importance of Tuscany in those times.”

Mte. San Savino looks incredible – I have to say, though, that I didn’t pay much attention to the town because my eyes kept straying towards that prosciutto!! Yammmmm!!! How did you like the food there?
What a wonderful trip. Thanks for sharing it with us!
I look at pictures like these and yearn for a less complicated existence, though don’t know if that is or was ever possible. I do imagine having a healthy respect for fresh food grown locally, and a long, rich history evident at every turn, makes spending time in such a place enlightening on so many levels.
You’re right – locally grown is much better than bought from a hypermarket.
I didn’t know how rich history Tuscany has – amazing buildings and beautiful towns and places one after another…
All stressed people should go there and just enjoy fresh air, beautiful countryside and good food and wine…aaah!
HIenoja kuvia! Kiva että tavaranne saapuivat;niiden järjestämisessä varmaan menee paljonkin aikaa…
Luulin, etta ylimaaraista kamaa olisi heitetty pois mutta ei. Tai sitten joku on sujauttanut kaiken poisheitetyn takaisin muuttokuormaan! 🙂
