\nNew Year’s Day Lunch\/ Dinner was a meal filled ( of course)\u00a0with\u00a0 great food. and conversation…but also \u00a0with keywords to avoid.. words like-potatoes.. biscotti…. torrone…chocolate..panettone…particular cheeses..particular breads…any words that meant food -had to be avoided.
\n\u00a0As we sat down to eat a long 5 hour meal that seemed to be endless… anytime the mere mention of any food was heard in the conversation our gracious host would jump up and say..\u201dwait a minute I have some of that, they make it specially in this particular town it is their specialty..you should try it\u201d and automatically another course was added to the meal…So we began to realize that it was not a good idea to continue to speak about anything that was food related. Or if we continued to do so we would be sitting down to a meal that would last into the wee hours of the night and we could barely finish what had already been planned.
\nNot that the meal was anything but delicious,it was all delicious ..every last drop,, but there is only so much one person can eat! The Holidays in Italy are like a continuing 2 week meal..with one meal ending and one meal beginning immediately after..
\n\u00a0Breakfast, during the Holidays..other than a cup of coffee- to get you going for the day-\u00a0is almost impossible to eat..the meal eaten the night before is enough to hold you over till the next day’s lunch..
\nNow that our Main meal\u00a0of the day was \u00a0eaten… it is time to clear the dishes and\u00a0set the table with\u00a0new ones for our final meal of the day..a New Year’s Supper..let’s hope that this will be a light one.. oh well, only 5 more days to go of this constant feasting!
\nIn the meantime, would love to hear your Holiday menus and stories,share them here..
\nBuon Anno, Happy New Year
