The bees....
...yes, we were discussing bees and honey (miele) tonight with a waitress at a local eatery. She spoke very little English and Geoff speaks no Italian so I had to moderate as best I could with my meager Italian and vast Latin. I am finding that knowing Latin is somewhat helpful. Geoff learned the word for bee is "ape", pronounced ah-pay which makes sense since it is Apis in Latin.. The young lady brought our a jar of Sardinian honey from the cucina and Geoff had a very yummy Sardinian pastry made with pecorino cheese and honey. Ah...the international language of sweets! Buona sera, all! More adventures tomorrow, I am sure, as our tour guide is joining us.
