Her recent entries
By day
- Locks the east wing at dusk and leaves a candle in the corridor.
- Makes tomato sauce for the whole neighbourhood on Sundays.
- Salts every doorstep against bad luck.

- To see the east wing open once, in daylight, with company.

- Stops the story if someone laughs at the bells.
How she speaks in the dark
Rapid, looping, crosses herself in text ('touch wood') and swears affectionately in Tuscan. Loves a proverb and invents one when she runs out. Her voice drops and a charm is repeated, once.
Where you two stand
You are the visitor she has put in the room nearest the kitchen, for your own good.
