Other than one cruise, I haven't ever gotten outside of the US/Canada. Someday I will- and I use everyone elses trips to plan mine!<br /><br />I think the best thing I have ever eaten was on that cruise- the chef had made a ricotta cheesecake that I about died for! I had more than once piece that night (and he saved me some for the next night). I have had other cheesecakes (ricotta and regular) but this was the absolute best ever. I have never found another one like it, which makes the memory all the better.evhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17115095440272797137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4164993050216184202.post-53475909615865868352011-10-23T03:00:00.176-04:002011-10-23T03:00:00.176-04:00All of your pictures are beautiful Lila.Thanks for...All of your pictures are beautiful Lila.Thanks for sharing.

Unfortunately, I would have to drive quite a bit to get any. What I really enjoy is the broth which is made from boiling the bejabbers out of meat and bones, not "beef flavored". Also, the selection of meat is unusual to the typical American palate; I like soft tendon and fatty flank myself.<br /><br />ironss [at] gmail [dot] com<br />GFC followerShereehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14205244523389110839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4164993050216184202.post-18572205819008123722011-10-22T22:04:05.486-04:002011-10-22T22:04:05.486-04:00Let's try this again with my name this time :)...Let's try this again with my name this time :) My Mom's chicken paprikash made with bread dumplings that are so big you have to cut them with thread!

I've been lucky enough to go to Florence three times during my life and would happily go every year if I could - but that's going to have to wait until I buy the winning lotto ticket. ;-)<br /><br />I love food. All kinds of food. One of my most memorable dishes was the tiramisu I had at a little neighborhood ristorante in Rome.

It's such a beautiful & romantic country.<br /><br />All the pictures I've seen of David were the censored version; this must be the 1st time I've seen him in all his glory. <br /><br />I love Indian food but then I'm Asian so perhaps I'm slightly biased. Just adore the piquant flavour of all the spices.<br /><br />thumbelinda03@yahoo.comLindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10796250279878652019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4164993050216184202.post-32195751063634290032011-10-19T15:51:27.476-04:002011-10-19T15:51:27.476-04:00LOL this post made me so hungry ;o)
