September is back to… Open Celery! Welcome to the month of back to… (something or somewhere). For some is back to work, for others is back to school (or both). What can we say, it’s time to easing our lives back into our routines.

Welcome to Open Celery! our monthly newsletter. A four-handed gourmet adventure dedicated to Plant-Based Recipes, Cooking Insights, and Stories… Made in Italy! 🇮🇹 
Open Celery! is the fruit (veggie and dessert) of the collaboration between Simona (Personal Chef) and Orsola (Gourmet Traveler+)… Published in Italian (as Apriti Sedano!) and English, here’s happily edited and translated by Orsola (aka ockstyle) 😀

Already missing sipping espresso in piazza Navona and wandering within the farmer market of Campo dei Fiori, we’re now facing the stressful return to work. Unless you love what you do! As Confucius saying goes “Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life.”

We wish we could share a foolproof recipe for returning to the daily grind with boundless energy, but the truth is, each of us should find our own way to navigate the transition. Alas, there’s no one-size-fits-all recipe for trading sun-soaked siestas for spreadsheets.

In the meantime… 

Our Traveling Chef Simona is going back to her Yoga Retreat locations… not before a weekend in London…

Meanwhile Orsola is packing (again) to move, a tough but necessary task. It’s all about being practical, that means sorting, purging, and boxing up your life with ruthless efficiency (or so you should be doing)…

I’m an Italian gluten-free Gourmet Traveler+ and a passionate storyteller, writing in English and Italian. Fluently speaking (eating and dreaming) in Italian, English, French, and Russian. When I’m not writing, I cook and test recipes for special diets, and photograph (also on film). Not necessarily in that order. — / — Sono una viaggiatrice buongustaia (la Gourmet Traveler+) senza glutine, appassionata narratrice di storie. Scrivo in italiano e inglese, parlo (mangio e sogno) fluentemente in italiano, inglese, francese e russo. Quando non scrivo, cucino, testo ricette dolci e salate per diete speciali, fotografo (anche in pellicola). Non necessariamente in quest’ordine.
