sometimes you just gotta have fun
Friday, 13 August 2010
It has been a busy couple of weeks!  Festas every night on the weekends, and now our Miami friends in town, it seems that we are always on the go!  Not that I'm complaining, it's great having friends visiting and so many things to do!!!

Tonight we went to a tagliatelle festa in Mercatale!  We had put together a fun big group and pretty much took up a couple tables.  The food was good, we had a great time, but that wasn't the big news of the night.

The concert today at the Tuscan Sun Festival probably was one of the most popular of all the events and the one I was most looking forward to!  Amazingly, we still didn't have tickets for it!

Tonight's Tuscan Sun Festival concert was being held outside in Piazza Signorelli.  This was a welcome relief because with 100+ temperatures the cooler evening air felt much nicer than inside the theater that isn't well aired.

grillin' time
Friday, 30 July 2010
I love it when Keith has time to cook!  I may be biased but I think he's one of the best grillers I know and he definitely has a passion for it!  Tonight we were having a few people over and Keith was setting up his new big grill!
