I lived in Rome for three years from 1978 - 1981....and yes, I know exactly what you mean by Italian cooking! It is wonderful! Nothing like it outside of Italy!....or outside of true Italian families....~ :)

Haha true dat!!! <3 Italy, wouldn't mind living there one day, if it were possible. Though I don't have citizenship and I hear thast nearly impossible to get now a days, and no citizenship means no work, i think. lol.

I was in Italy in the mid-60's, compliments of Uncle Sam's "canoe club" (Navy) and enjoyed my visits to Naples, Toranto, and other ports. I dangled off the top of the Leaning Tower of Pisa, climbing all the steps on the way up. I had a spaghetti dinner on my birthday and found it unimpressive--especially when I didn't know what the red flakes were in the jar and generously sprinkled them on top. (My mouth burned for hours and nothing would cut the burn.)
I liked Italy as well as the other countries we visited.
Deborah-Leigh:
Those "red flakes" might have sparked the kidney stones Duane! Glad you are up and running.
Come to think of it...it did take time to acquire a taste for Italian Cuisine...yet, once acquired, it is really a delight especially those Roman Artichokes! So, yes, I can empathise with those who are unimpressed too ~ :)

Glad you had a great time in Italy.
I was there many years ago and loved it--drove from the Italian Riveria thru Milan, Venice, Florence, Rome, Naples and then to Brindisi and took the ship over to Greece. I loved the food and the history. Was there for 2 weeks and it wasn't long enough. I yapped about it so much that our daughter went on their honeymoon there--they loved it as well!
Have a good school year Alex!
