“ When God created Calabria, there were 15000km2 of green-violet clay.
God promised to Himself a masterpiece and Calabria originated from His hands, much more beautiful than California and Haway, more attracting than the Cote D’Azur and the Japanese Arcipelago…….
……Then He gave months and seasons to Calabria. In the winter, in the spring and in the autumn the sun was always shining brightly….In January He gave the chestnut, in February pignolata, in March ricotta, in April focaccia with egg, in May swordfish, in June the cherry, in July the fig-aubergine, in August zibibbo ( kind of Muscat grapes), in September the prickly pear, in October mustard, in November the walnut, in December the orange.
He liked the always shining pink sea, the blooming rose in December, the clear blue sky, the fertile lands, the crops, the mild climate, the heady scent of herbs…..”.
