90th tablescape thursday - vegetable and flowers - Durumwheat bread

well, there are some things that makes me particulary pleased.

one is of course, studying maps and searching new walking routes..

but there is something else that makes me even more happy.

when a cutting roots! :)))

in these case...finally after several years of trying a cutting of  lemon verbena 

( lippia citriodora) 

have rooted!

here it is together with Houttuynia cordata "Chamaeleon"  

(try this little plant, if you are lucky it will invade your garden with it's small colourful leaves!)

and Busy Lizzie (impatiens walleriana)

(another very very pleasant and satisfactory plant.)

so...after 10days of steady rain, today..some sun came out!

I took the chance to set the table outside.

I didn't have much time (and lookin up into the sky I hurry anyway :))

so I made very simple.

I cut some long branches of my Rosa Banksiae Alba Plena,

a very very hardy rose, perfumed and without thorns and branches

of Robinia Pseudoacacia.

but it looked so lonley on the old tablecloth..so to cheer up..

I put some radicchio salad together.

well...it is not very fashionable but it made my husband and Sofia (doughter n°4) smile :))

then spill the dough out on a table, covered with some durumwheat flour.

just fold the angles to the middle, then turn the dough upside down and dow the same

(folde the angles to the middle)

take the dough and put on a baking try (covered with baking paper o with oil)
