In Italy, at least for us, no one is allowed to stay in our apartment if they come and visit. They must register with the local police and stay in a hotel or hostel or something due to the anti-terrorist laws here. But last night we had a very uninvited guest in our apartment - in our kitchen to be more exact. A centipede found its way onto our tiny kitchen counter, and the entertainment for the night (after our first homemade dinner and watching La Vita E Bella) was trying to catch the thing and putting it outside. It took many seconds of crafty thinking to blow it onto a flat surface and then use the old glass and piece of paper trick. Eventually we did get him outside and out of our kitchen!
Since Julie and I have been feeling under the weather for the past couple of days, last night we made pasta with olive oil and got giant bottles of sprite and watched La Vita E Bella on our very comfortable couches.
This is going to be a very short blog since I am starving. Instead of eating pizza I had lettuce for the the fiber and I am very very hungry now.

I had a wonderful Italian meal in NJ on Friday with Aunty Rose..... gamberoni wrapped with ..... OH MY GOD it was good..... and then, somewhere else, I had caprese salad... oh... that was down in Little Italy in NYC at Pelligrini's...the mozzarella di bufala was OK..... pretty fresh but not like Napoli!!! The linguine was a little heavy though....
