afternoon light

Italians have been on lockdown for nearly two weeks now. And the regulations are quite stringent - no setting foot out of the house for any reason other than essential necessities: food, medicines, walking the dog if you have one (but only briefly and only close to home). No doubt some of us are beginning to feel imprisoned in our own homes. But there are always those special moments, the ones that make you love your home, its comfort, familiarity, intimacy. For me, it's the afternoon light coming in at a slant into my small, cluttered, but colorful kitchen.
