Love is a many splendored thing

It must be true, because Sognatrice of Bleeding Espresso loves her can opener!  She even photographed it hugging a can of tomatoes.
In other Friday news , I have discovered the perfect breakfast in Italy for at least non-Italians.  Cheese and mostarda.  The Coop here in Umbria has a pecorino fresco on sale and whern I tried it, it was delicious.  It reminded me of fruit, so I dug out the peach mostarda I made last fall and tried it.  Wow!  Mostarda is a sweet and spicy sort of pickle thing.  My peach mostarda is a rough jam made with hot peppers, peperoncini, and has a sideswipe of balsamic vinegar.  The balsamico is not mixed in because it would have made it an ugly color.
