More random thoughts on the day to day life...

1) Even though it is March and everyone suffers from spring fever, watching big snow flakes slowly fall to the ground is still very relaxing.

2) Zucchini Risotto and Spritz are absolutely delicious, especially when home-made!

3) Italians could benefit from thicker apartment walls, especially since the people who live next door are obsessed with techno music (especially Madonna) and have recently taken to playing it at all hours of the day.

4) On a similar note, the guitarist living next door on the other side is playing Clapton, Santana, and The Animals daily and (unfortunately for us) has not yet improved much this year...

5) I am extremely excited for asparagus season to finally be arriving and can't wait to try the famous asparagus grown here in Emilia-Romagna!

6) Skype is fantastic, and it has been nice talking to friends and family back home on occassion.

7) As much as we complain about the overall slowmoving-ness of this country, the loud neighbors next door, the lack of a clothes dryer and a dishwasher, and the amount of dog poop all over the sidewalks, it is hard to believe that there are only 2 1/2 months left in the school year and that we will be heading home soon!
