It's been getting colder here in Firenze! Last night we had a real storm, with thunder and lightning (and I went out anyway to get gelato of course!) After a busy morning of Grammer (ugh..) and etching (yay), I walked around with John.
We stumbled upon some kind of food festival on our way to the mercato and we sampled cheese and bisocotti...marveled at the marzipan....
We bought some anrancini--a treat from southern Italy--fried risotto balls! One had creamy vegetables inside, the other cheese and prosciutto...sooo good for a rainy day! There were also tons of sweets--fresh cream and choclate filled donuts. Maybe I'll go back tonight for dessert!
Tomorrow we depart for Roma! (at 6 am...) I am very excited, this week has been a whirlwind..
