a Roman Spring: floracult

A well spent Roman Spring afternoon.

I love Floracult: the first of my Roman Spring Traditions.

It’s a great flower fair in Rome, in the Fendi sister’s manor in the countryside, where you can find wonderful, colorful, extravagant things.

I took a few pictures to show you the beauty of this outdoor Roman Spring festival and tell you what I saw and did.

We pincnic-ed with local produce and traditional Roman Spring fava beans and pecorino cheese. Plus refreshing artisanal beer/white wine, of course. Isn’t that basket a real cutie?

We cuddled horses (real and fake):

We gave money for abandoned doggies (and got what will be our Summer bracelets in return). And I found my favorite Spring blend: rhubarb tea from a “Downton Abbey” style tea room in Rome: Babington.
