FOOD, FOOD, AND MORE FOOD

How can you go to Italy and not be excited about the food?   It is something to get excited about!  We tried a variety of things while we were there and weren't disappointed once!  From various pasta dishes...to soups...to sandwiches...to gelato 

yum!)...to tiramisu...it was all great!  The only thing I didn't like was the coffee.  (If you know me at all you know that I prefer weak, watered down coffee.  I know, it's kind of sick, but it is what it is!)  The coffee was very strong...like it is all over Europe, I believe.  Anyway, the food was spectacular!

On Friday we went to a food market.  We saw everything from meats, cheeses, vegetables, fresh and dried fruit, pasta, chocolate, flowers...and everything else in between.   It was a great find for us!!
