My wonderful cousin, Susan, has started EyeItalia, after living in Italy for a year. It’s full of amazing Italian papers, fabrics and just about every beautiful thing you could possibly covet. I warn you, this is a dangerous, dangerous website.

Oh and check out the photo essays, which are gooooorgeous.

Chris Billet sent me this BBC article about a ‘ninja’ arrested in Italy

Italian police have arrested a Russian “ninja” who had been spreading fear across farmlands in the north of the country.

All I can say is that you need to read the whole article, because it just gets weirder the farther into it you get.
