Welcome to the Lindsay's blog. We hope to make you extremely hungry. Maybe we won't always talk about the interesting food we eat, but also our adventures as we explore Europe.
As a faithful narrative of all our dealings with food, let me begin with looking back at our time so far in Italy. It all began in July with eating ox in Germany and kebaps in Austria. Then in August a trip to Tuscany left Tim with a craving for wild boar. We have eaten a lot of pizza and a lot of gelato since being here. In October, we attended the EuroChocolate festival in Perugia. That was heaven! Chocolate everywhere!

Christmas had a combination of struffoli, a traditional dessert made of little dough balls coated in honey and sprinkles, and baked dentice, a fish that translates into English as dentex. The potato gnocchi and lasagne of New Year's Eve was a hit.

Finally, (and unfortunately there is no picture) Tim ordered "mixed fried seafood" for dinner one night. It came out as a plate piled high with several small, whole fish breaded and fried, with their pathetic little eyes looking at you and their crisp little tail fins crackling. Tim ate them happily, I might add.
Are you hungry yet?
