which leads nicely on to my taking of the reading the myth challenge and my own round the world challenge ,my own round world challenge ,will be a week every month focusing on one country from round the world ,books and a translator of the books were needed over a week and also a post on the culture and cuisine of the place I have Amy reads in a way to thank partly I was inspired from her Nigerian week .so I ll start with –
JANUARY – ITALY
