Steve left this morning for 1520 Spruce Street but I am still clinging by my fingertips to Vicolo del Cedro, 12. We have had the most glorious three months together in the most beautiful city. And now I am blessed with five days alone and perfect spring weather.
After kissing my honey goodbye, I headed off to the gym for another session with Aramis. Who needs the Sporting Club and all those yuppies? Later in the afternoon, I hiked all the way through Testaccio to San Paolo Fuori Le Mura, yet another grandiose basilica with a veritable forest of huge granite columns and gorgeous mosaics. On the way home, I stopped to buy dinner—fresh fava beans, fabulous aged pecorino from Volpetti and, for dessert, unbelievably fragrant fresh strawberries.
Philadephia seems very far away.
