A smell spreads between the houses of Poggio, Bagnore, stretches a trail of sugar and vanilla from the open window of the kitchen of Laura and grandmother slowly envelops the chestnut trees, the dark coloring of joy skeletons of these trees and snowdrifts remained at their feet. E 'Carnival in Tuscany and make the brothers, "I do not know why they are called like this ... perhaps because they are shaped like a tonsure true that the brothers carry on their heads or maybe it will be an irreverent, typical the Tuscans to compare these donuts "chubby" and party .... Anyway the most important thing, at least at my house, not the origin of the name ma friggere i frati molto spesso, da gennaio a marzo.... sennò che Carnevale è? Li mangi in un boccone,uno tira l'altro ...a me piacciono perfino i granellini di zucchero che ti rimangono tra le dita e intorno alla bocca anche se nonna Laura con il suo grembiule bianco e la padella in mano non c'è più...Ogni anno tutti noi riviviamo con lei queste emozioni , ripetendo il suo rituale.
