Michael went to a conference in Rome earlier this month and brought back some trinkets from the Bartolucci woodworking shop where they specialize in handmade Pinocchios, including this new addition to my tree. I just realized that his body is backwards in the photo below, the single silver circle on his chest a magnet for hanging him on the fridge when it’s not Christmas. On the other side he has two buttons. We like to call this guy the emo Pinocchio since whoever painted his hair put the fringe over one eye.
