This blog's name

Some friends have been wondering why the blog has its current name...

Well, "Taste Of Cherry" is the title of a movie from Iranian director Kiarostami (as you can see from the YouTube clip at the bottom of this page).

And, as my friend Saso noticed, the name itself "cherry" originates from the area between Iran and Turkey (although the general belief is somewhat incorrectly that cherries came from Iran, but obviously borders used to be different from what they are today)

Iran is still today a top (or the top) world producer of cherries. See
here.

Oh, and sure enough, let me also say that the name was a bright idea from Giulia :-)

Taste of cherry reminds me of Lorenzo 's favorite condoms that he imports directly from the Corn Exchange Shop in Leeds

Sandokan (del Clan dei Casalesi)

That’s enough! That’s really enough!!!!!!
I can’t believe it: we splat up, or better you did dump me, ‘cos you had to travel (you said) and you would have been away for over a month during summer as well. You had never talked about a bird though, having a journey with her, making up a blog about your “stuff” with her, giving the name of our private “amusing entertainments ” to this flipping blog … I can’t afford it, that’s too much!!!!!!
You are taking the pees out of me, and that’s so rude!
The taste of cherry … pfuff, which kind of taste??????????!!!!!!!!!!!
Everybody knows who I am.

Yes, taste of cherry is definitely a condom's flavour. Lollo has just to pay attention that Iranian security won't control his laggage: too many cherry condoms!
