Tanti Auguri Zia!




Today was my aunt’s birthday. My cousin’s wife and children came to town for the weekend so we were all able to celebrate together. It has been a food festival. First we had pasta with eggplant and turkey cutlets. The Italians are crushing on turkey right now around here. Then we finished off lunch with fruit and a cake for my aunt’s birthday. For dinner, we had pizza and eggplant parm. It was pretty fun day. This only the second time I’ve ever met these children who are now 13 and 8. The last time I saw them they were 7 and 2, so there is a huge difference.
