The food: It is probably my favorite thing about living in Italy. Italian food is the best food in the whole wide world. It's carby and fresh and delicious. So far, our favorites are Gelato (ice cream) in pretty much any flavor and Spaghetti Carbonara and Pizza Diavola, Margherita, and Aloha. We are super lucky to have an amazing Trattoria a 5 minute walk away with the best pizza and vino rosso we've found yet. They are never super busy, have a highchair for Emily and always give the kids candy when we leave. It's awesome!
Clockwise from top left: E eating gelato (her fav is Fragola ~ Strawberry), B's gelato-stashe, B eating gelato (his fav is usually Mente ~ mint with little chocolate chips), and then my favorite wine so far from a local winery along with some Moscato grapes from our Landlady's son's grape vines. They taste like tiny moscato wine sips, yum!
Above: nummies in Venice, that ravioli was insane!
The pasta aisle at the local Italian grocery store and funny little spiral pastas with our Landlady's pesto sauce. I don't like pesto because I don't like basil but her sauce was amazing!!
Clockwise from top left: the day our household goods were delivered, we had pizza delivered for lunch and didn't have a table in the kitchen yet so the trash can works just fine for Brian! Pizza "Americana" from our local pizza joint, complete with hot dogs and french fries, I'm sort of offended by the stereotype that Americans eat this!! And E and B enjoying some giant pretzels in Austria.
Clockwise from top left: B enjoying some biscotti, more gelato, some tiny nummies from a local cafe and a cappucino from there too. Italians do small breakfasts, just a coffee and maybe a little pastry. Their coffee is incredible though and same goes for the pastries, yum!
