Travel Set

LV  - for your pistachio nuts or truffle. No, not chocolate truffle. 

"Trifola d'Alba" from the Piedmont regions of Alba and Asti in Northern Italy. The grey/white truffle so in demand in October/November.  Raw and shaved over steaming pasta - Who can resist such a delicacy? 

Truffle, Truffle, Truffle it vapors an aged smell of nature and en flames the senses with its mysterious, rather musky, savory, delightful taste. 

"Whosoever says truffle, utters a grand word, which awakens erotic and gastronomic ideas..."

-Jean-Anthelme Brillat-Savarin

Priceless...

Hunting and Gatherings...a Rowing Craft...and a vest from JL Powell

From American Traders

"The Skylark is the the perfect small rowing craft.Comfortably sized to fit up to three adults, this beautiful boat has a unique triple-keel design that helps it track superbly. The Skylark comes with two sets of brass oar sockets, one pair spruce spoon blade oars and a set of pinned oar locks (leathers are an option); cherry trim, seats, and wide, fan-shaped stern backrest that looks and feels fantastic. As versatile as it is beautiful, the Skylark is a hit with sportsmen as well as the recreational rower. 

And if you prefer not to row, the Skylark’s square stern allows for a max 4HP gas motor (or any size electric trolling motor) to be mounted."

One of my favorite vests is a JL Powell made of lamb skin leather and British Millerain waxed cotton - I have been using a lot of clothing from JLP during my travels on the African continent as well as in the Middle East, Europe, the Caribbean/West Indies an the Americas. Good quality and JLP does not mass produce...
