Follow along with our current trip or explore past adventures. Our blog title is a bastardized portmanteau of our family name, Farnsworth, and Dolce Far Niente, Italian for “The sweet art of doing nothing”. So this is us getting very accomplished at wasting our time having fun.

- Busy in Barolo
Back up to Barolo for lunch. We’d been noticing that literally every menu was the same with only very slight variations and we had gotten rather tired of the choices (cooked or raw beef, tripe or tongue, zero fish or chicken) offered. We stopped in for wine tasting at the place Scott described yesterday then drove to La Morra for the spectacular view of the Piedmont from the Belvedere. Popped into a little grocery and bought fixings so we could eat dinner “at home”. It had been a beautiful day but just as we got back in our car a big thunderstorm hit. Had a huge mixed salad and a caprese salad for dinner. Ah, vegetables!
