Kathryn Hill's personal blog.
One of my favorite Neruda poems, I read it while I was living in Italy.
Turqoise, I love you
as if you were my girlfriend
as if you were mine:
you are everywhere:
you are just washed,
just recently sky blue,
just fallen from above:
you are the sky’s eyes:
you slice through the surface
of the shop, of the air:
blue almond:
sky talon:
bride.
I grew up reading my parents' Gourmet and National Geographic magazines, so it is not surprising that I'm passionate about food and traveling. I love taking pictures of food, visiting city markets, trying new cuisines, and learning to cook them when I get back home.
I've picked porcini mushrooms in the hills of Tuscany, participated in tea ceremony in Kyoto while wearing a kimono, and cooked a Thanksgiving meal for 20 in France. (Protip: turkeys are really expensive in France, and French flour doesn't make very good cornbread.)
