Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
I need you to set the scene -
It is a warm spring evening. The sky is clear, the light is golden. The scene - Italy, in a tiny commune just outside Verona, named Parona all'Adige. The streets are paved with cobblestones and flagstones, every window has flowers and herbs in it, and people walking —
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
Off to our right, if we follow the streets and alleys a block, is the Luglio 26 1944 Lungadige, a street that runs along the side of the River Adige. We are on the Via del Ponte. We pass a park in which families are playing, the sun at our backs, the scent of the river in spring wafting to us
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
We walk in to town, and on our left, as we reach the end of the Via del Ponte as it merges with another, is a Ristorante, tables on the sidewalks, the scent of a wood fired oven blooming forth. Welcomed at the door by a waiter, we are shown to our table and the order taken -
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
Your order was for their specialty pizza, and they make it, bake it in the wood fired oven, serve it hot & fresh-
Crisp, chewy crust, with generous amounts of sundried tomato paste sauce, fresh oregano, fresh basil, the mozzarella was mozz'd a few blocks away this morning, sliced fresh black olives
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
There's a hint of garlic in the sauce that only arrives once you've swallowed, just a hint, you'd never find the evidence.
On the side they have some local salumi & a local gorgonzola for antipasto, and they serve it with house wine, Valpolicella, harvested last fall, light and fresh and floral.
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
Night descends, and drifting in from some blocks away is the sound of a street performer covering a radio hit, as the waiter serves a thin and modest but incredibly rich chocolate torte that you don't remember ordering, and it is all of it heaven
