Hi Girasoli, great photos! The colors are so bright and vibrant. Bologna may be moving up my list as I type my comments here!
Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful photos! Hope you have a great TGIF day tomorrow! :)

You are right girasoli. No words are necessary! The markets look amazing.

Thanks everyone. One of the things that made me want to return to Bologna after my first stay there was seeing the food markets. I even have a photo framed in my kitchen from 2001 of one of these food displays.

So beautiful! I'd love to taste one of those apricots in photo #2.

Definitely one of my favorite Bologna things! I remember buying fish at that very Pescheria Brunelli, to make a Norwegian dinner for my flatmates and friends. Good times.

Beautiful, Girasoli. I think I'm going to need extra room in my suitcase to bring home lots of cheese from Bologna!

You are so right... non ci sono le parole...
I don't know when I've seen such vibrant, fresh, beautiful food.
Beautiful post.

Annie, I was not a good shopper that day. I just took photos but now wish I bought a few of the fruits/vegetables at the market.
Chiocciola, the food markets made me wish I was staying in an apartment. It is a tough choice in Bologna to eat out or cook.
sandra, Bologna and Parma are great places for buying cheese.
dana, I love that expression - added it to my post :)
Thanks again everyone!! I really appreciate your kind comments.

I love your notes on Bologna. We've rented an apartment there for a week in September. You''ve whetted my appetite for more! Grazie,
Nancy
