Stracciatella
16 October 2021 05:37 pmIt was raining, and I stopped off at a roadside Italian delicatessen stall on my way home from market and asked for some cheese that would be suitable to put on top of pizza (since I had some left-over dough in the fridge from my not-very-successful attempt at making pizza earlier in the week). He recommended me what he said was a tub of mozzarella (for eight pounds -- I had rashly not asked the price in advance, but told myself it was a luxury indulgence), but that wasn't what it said on the label. Which was why I'd asked, as I didn't recognise the names of any of the cheeses on offer...
When I got it home and opened the tub, it clearly wasn't anything like mozzarella. https://www.lalatteria.co.uk/stracciatella/

Another little exercise in writing, this time done in an attempt to provide an illustration of the difference between a 'third-person limited' viewpoint and a 'deep third-person [limited]' viewpoint. Ian Fleming's original text was paraphrased from memory out of "Octopussy and other stories", which I'd got down to quote from earlier and couldn't be bothered to go upstairs and search for all over again; the scenario and character perspective are canon, but the exact wording isn't!
