    What a sweetheart Carlo is, planting flowers in the wall just to make it prettier and he cooks! Bravo Carlo! Thank you for this lovely journey away from the still cold Canadian Rockies, and my half attempted dinner. 😄

    The Pasta al Forno that Mr. Carlo cooked looks very appetizing and testy, please give us the recipe so I can prepare too !!
    It is awesome that your friends help you in this time of need and Positano looks magnificent without the mass of rude tourists, it reminds me when I was a young boy growing up in Rome, being able to go everywhere without waiting hours and pay to go into the Colosseum.
    Thank you again for your exceptional video. Ciao da Lori e Carmelo 🇮🇹

    Once and a while I find UA-cam channels that really fascinate me. Often they're different, and fascinate me for different reasons. Yours is my latest gem. I'm really enjoying your videos. They're such a pleasant and beautiful look at a part of the world I've never been. Thanks for letting me come along. Btw, I'm impressed by your stair climbing and hiking ability. Positano seems similar to San Francisco, in that you're always either walking uphill or down. Well, just wanted to reach out and say hi from Southern California.

Producing vlogs are like a fulltime job! Also love your cooking. Another great channel which is very nice and interesting like yours is Chateau Diaries(Stephanie Jarvis - UKexpat who is renovating a chateau with her family and friends), also 'Doing it ourselves' with Michael Petherwick.Both based in France. You will love their channels too. Greetings from New Zealand.

    I know you posted this in 2020, but watching Carlo make his pasta al forno reminds me of my mother-in-law’s lasagne! She used egg & salami too, but with hand made lasagne sheets, which was always done for special occasions I.e. Easter, Christmas etc.❤️ the family would come over to all help prepare it.
    Sadly, she has dementia now & cant remember much, but I’m so glad I got to learnt her recipes whilst she was still with us 💖
    She was very much like you guys, don’t waste anything, use what you have. Since I’ve been watching your videos, I can see why, so thank you for showing your life as it is 😘👍

    O my what a lovely retreat that you have made in your garden Nicki!..love getting insight into life in Italy; just happy that not all sad since such a crisis from the first wave of the pandemic. You are really in a good spot in Positano, clearly. I live where not such concentrated population (Ottawa Canada) so I am interested how it is in busier places as well. You two are so busy and such "do it yourselfers" which has certainly been a godsend in this unimaginable time of covid19...this is like Truman story(Jim Carrey) but a lighter side of getting bird's eye view of someone else's llife...again thanks for sharing; all the best to you. we havent been able to begin our gardens just yet SO LOVE TO see your garden. xoxoxo Bonita in Canada.xoxoox

    It would be impossible to express how much I enjoy these videos and all of the work of you and your friends to make them! I totally miss Positano, as we have celebrated many milestone anniversaries and birthdays there, and I always feel the streets and shops as you walk, even the fantastic pharmacy that took care of me when I got sick. I am wondering if any of the shops are sending goods to the United States during lockdown, as perhaps we could help the economy there? Each shop owner becomes a friend after you meet them and we had hoped to come back this year to celebrate another milestone anniversary but I guess we will just do it vicariously though your truly generous videos. Grazie mille, Nicki, Carlo, and Skye!

Thank you for putting the name of the dish Carlo cooked after you cooked in the title because I needed to rewatch the video were you made the zucchini with pasta and had difficulty finding it. This will be the second time I've made it, delicious! Also, I made the Dorset Apple Cake and it is a hit too. When I looked up the recipe for the cake, it was recommended to serve with custard and remembered you mentioned making it to use up milk. Would you please bring us along the next time you make it? Thank you for sharing!

    My questions:
    You and Carlo have a big garden and many fruit trees. You must share your veg and fruit with realtives and friends?
    Do you can and freeze the tomatoes and other veg? The lids you have are different than the ones we use in the US.
    Can you show us how you do it when the time comes to preserve the food?
