Out the door early this morning brought us back to Ciocia Marysia’s home and this time she brought the bridge club and out to hunt we went. This crisp, dewy morning was spent in the forest foraging for our dinner’s main ingredient, the wild mushroom, and with the bridge club, we were in good hands. These jolly women knew how to hunt! What a delightful set of friends!
