Food and Travel

Greetings, Friends,

I am taking off today on a road trip to Pompeii (and then . . . the world!!), so I shall post when I get back with stories and pictures.

So the other day, Giuliana asked Flannery and I if we liked hamburgers. A little confused, we said that, yes, we did like hamburgers, and she said that night we would have them for dinner. Flannery and I waited all day, with some trepidation, to see what her version of hamburgers would be (she even asked us if we preferred hamburgers or cheeseburgers!). As it turns out, it was the most delicious thing I have possibly ever tasted. She served us hamburger patties covered with this amazing sauce made with olives and tomatoes (she makes her own tomato paste and canned tomatoes and jars her own olives, all from the garden her husband keeps).

Ciao

Micaya,
So good to hear from you over the phone. Your trip sounded ideal. Can't wait to see your blog on it and to view some pictures of beautiful Capri! The weather here has been unusually greay, cold and depressing so I am jealous.

Have fun,
Love your godmother
