Our first hotel in Italy is booked! :)
Tonight I booked our hotel in Rome, which is probably one of the nicest places we'll stay in. We are staying on a hill over looking the city, instead of directly in the city. We can take a bus to the tourist places and then walk from there..

"Aventino is a district in Rome, named after the hill that rises up near the Tiber river, and is one of the legendary seven hills of Rome. From the top of this hill you'll get an amazing view of the entire city, and the most popular thing to do around this place is to take a peek through the keyhole building. The keyhole building belongs to the Soverign Military Order of Malta, and when you take that peek, you will see 3 countries, the one I just named, Rome (Italy) and St. Peter's Basilica (Vatican City)."
If you like spicy food, then this is THE sauce for you (and if not, I'm sure you could put less red pepper in). Yumm...we had this tonight and I found the recipe here:

Close-up of owl on purse for Kyla :). I used wonder-under (sp?) to put the owls and design on the canvas bag, and then hand-sewed around each shape with upholstery thread.
In this picture only the owl on the right is sewn, but you get the idea... :) This purse has a long, off-white smooth rope handle too.

Very good sandwich (with a funny name.... :) )
Have you ever written yourself a reminder note and tucked it in the fridge...........
