Italian lunch

I took no photos at all today! We were invited to lunch at Lorenzo’s house. We had suggested a restaurant but Christina whipped up lunch – a huge meal with all the courses the Italians do. Pasta for Prima Piatta, meat (or egg-plant for J) for Secondo Piatta, and Insalata, formaggi, and Dolci. I was quite full from that so hesitated when we were invited back for dinner. After a quick nap and an email check it was back again for dinner. Lorenzo’s parents and uncle and aunt were there so it was a family affair. The small dinner we had hoped for was, of course, huge – pizza and other plates followed by dessert. I checked out some of Lorenzo’s collection of militaria and books then we headed home, but only after accepting an invite to lunch the next day.
