(not necessarily in that order)
Lunch today. Pizza tonight. Brunch tomorrow. Most likely lunch on Monday, followed by another lunch on Tuesday.
This is some serious eating! Which takes time, because we’re in Europe and meals are more or less three hours long.
The important thing is to pace oneself. And focus on enjoying quality time with people we love.
Though it originated in Valtellina (northern Italy), yesterday’s pizzoccheri is a dish typical to Ticino (the part of Switzerland where Lugano is located).
Today was something completely different: Ramesha and I fixed a full-on American brunch — French toast, scrambled eggs, and potatoes — for our dear friends, the Lo Menzo’s.
There was even peanut butter, although we made sure to explain that’s not typically offered when you order French toast in an American restaurant!
I’m happy to report that they thoroughly enjoyed the entire meal. And we thoroughly enjoyed hanging out with them; so much so that it was almost 6:00pm before we managed to tear ourselves away!
