We had some wonderful meals while in Italy – pasta, pizza, seafood and more pasta and pizza. My favorite meal was pumpkin ravioli, which I had in a small Tuscan town called San Gimignano. We weren’t very good at pronouncing things in Italian, so we shortened this town’s name to San Jimmy. Jimmy is my dad’s nickname so that worked for us. Mom’s favorite meal of the week was a pesto gnocchi dish that she had on the first night in Rome. Dad was the most adventurous of the group. He went for the local specialties, which in Florence included cinghiale (wild boar). Here he is eating his wild boar sandwich.

That wild boar meat must have been good----he's smiling---or maybe that really isn't a smile.
