We're Back!

We're back from Italy! Actually we've been back for almost two weeks already, but with the move to a new state, the furnishing of a new apartment, and the start of a new job, blogging has been on the bottom of our priority list.
The good news is that bathrooms are free in the good old USA. As you can see in the picture, we ended up paying 1.50 euros to use the restroom in Venice. That's almost $2.50! Crazy huh? A good travel hint for anyone heading off to Venice is to go buy something from the 1 euro menu at Mcdonalds. Anyway, we'll post more later!

Still on Vacation....in Italy

Hi all you loyal blog readers! I keep apologizing for the lack of blog posts, but will be apologizing a little bit more. I have been taking sooo many pictures, but haven't had the time to blog. The only reason the Daring Bakers post popped up was because I had pre-posted it earlier in September.
September and October have been a whirlwind of travels. After my trip to Las Vegas and Hawaii, I picked up the hubby from Hawaii and we caught a plane to Illinois. We stayed in Illinois for ~24 hours, then DROVE to Texas. We've been in Texas for less than two days and then are heading off to Italy (Rome, Florence, and Venice) in less than 12 hours!
I guess you can say that we're training for the "Amazing Race" TV show. Nah, our travels are not as extreme.

We'll be back in the States in a couple of weeks, so by late October there will be posts about food from Las Vegas, Hawaii, and Italy.

Take care everyone!
