And while we may never escape our Tuscan lust, we at least know who’s to blame: Frances Mayes, the author of the memoir “ Under the Tuscan Sun,” which recounts her experience restoring an abandoned villa called Bramasole in the Tuscan countryside. In his 2013 hip-hop classic “ Tuscan Leather,” Drake tell us, “Just give it time, we’ll see who’s still around a decade from now.” Whoever among us is still here, it seems certain that we will still be living with the insidious and inescapable word “Tuscan,” used as marketing adjective, cultural signifier, life-style choice. Why deprive our pets of the pleasures of Tuscan living? This barely merited a raised eyebrow I’d already been guilty of feeding my cat Fancy Feast’s White Meat Chicken Tuscany. I’ve watched my friend fill his dog’s bowl with Beneful Tuscan Style Medley dog food. I have eaten, sometimes on Tuscan dinnerware, a Tuscan Chicken on Ciabatta from Wendy’s, a Tuscan Chicken Melt from Subway, Zuppa Toscana at Olive Garden, and Tuscan Hummus from California Pizza Kitchen. I have stood barefoot on Tuscan bathroom tiles, washing my hands under Tuscan faucets after having used Tuscan toilets. I have sat on Tuscan-brown sofas surrounded by Tuscan-yellow walls, lounged on Tuscan patios made with Tuscan pavers, surrounded by Tuscan landscaping.
