Everyone got to talking about peanut butter during dinner (with Stefano's brother and parents), and in joking, Stefano asked me if I brought it with me. I got up to get it and he exclaimed "REALLY!? you brought it!?" When I brought it back out, it created quite an excited ruccous, a "festa," they said. They called it "American Nutela" and we had many conversations about the simple substance which does not exist here! (Thank you Katie Bergstin for suggesting this highly-appreciated treat! :D). Their grandmother tried it for the very first time in her life tonight- a very special day ;)
The Library
Have a wonderful day <3
How hilarious about the peanut butter! Amazing that one of THE most common place things for us is such a specialty for them!!!How fun:D How wonderful to see you on a bike in Italy! We rode to the library today too!! Heehee! I guess you checked out the Italian Harry Potter from the library? Did they have the English one at the library as well? Thanks for the pictures (fotos!) they're great...so are YOU! Love you to pieces! xo
