Pasta with Pumpkin and Parma Ham

Welcome in autumn!
I believe that autumn is magic, because you can see how many colors there are within yellow and brown.

 

I love colors,  that's why I don't like using black and white pics, I guess you can use black and white colors just if you need to communicate something sepecific that goes outside of the colors and to underline the subject.

Pictures like the one above without any color loose their meaning, becoming just a melanchonic pics. Colors, instead, give a meaning and a feeling depending from the viewer, for example this picture brings up to my mind a wonderful movie: What Dream May Come, an union of love and colors.

"What's true in our minds is true, whether some people know it or not."

What Dream May Come

Going back to food, today I'd propose the autumn vegetable par excellence : pumpkin!
