Going to Market

Going to market now, to pick up some food for our kitchen and some basic supplies, toilet paper...etc.

Fall Class Registration went perfect for BJ and I, Pat...well, that is another story! But he is getting it worked out :)

First day of classes today went great! SMALL classes, we all really like them. Basically just a great intellectual discussion about topics, not the high stress 100 person class socratic method of the last year.
The reading is beyond dull though!!! Got through my reading for tomorrow and it took forever!!

We're on the lookout for the rumored .99 cent bottles of wine near the market....

The dinner last night paid for by the school was amazing!! The traditional italian feast, with all the courses.... a bread, meat and cheese course. Two pasta courses. A main course, and dessert! mmm
of course pitchers and pitchers of red wine.

I was dying because after the first three courses, I thought we were done, I piled the pasta course on...big time! Was hurting trying to eat our main course,, chicken and potatoes! Pat and I were both a little stuffed, BJ loved his main course :)

SIDE NOTE: Yesterday, Pat had HotDog pizza!! It is exactly what you think it is....talk about a new favorite hangover food :)

Yesterday we went to the museum and saw "The David", it is amazing! I had seen it so many times in pictures, etc...that I was ready to be disappointed but it is so massive and intimidating that you turn to go down the hallway, see it and gasp! That was awesome.

So..we are off to the market, I will add lots more later, including a story from Rome I forgot to share! It is a winning one :)
