As happens every summer, I am missing Italy terribly...maybe I can convince all of you to make an escape...

What have you got to lose? The world's going to hell anyway...might as well go to hell in the most beautiful place!

There's wisdom in your words, Mary Ann. I miss Italy too, so why not? Food for thought.

Fusun we could raise a little culinary hell in Rome for sure...and at the very least...

Offhand, I think Sicily is the place to raise culinary hell. I really would like to check that notion out...probably not THIS late summer, tho...

Mary Ann, surely the planet has to look less chaotic with the evening Mediterranean breezes. Then, on second thought, Amanda Knox might disagree.

I don't know, Catherine, Knox just won her point about the DNA evidence being contaminated. She may get off yet and make a fortune on being falsely charged and tried. From that point of view, after Casey Anthony's trial, it looks like a tie Florida 1, Perugia 1...stay tuned. Thanks for the comment.

I would love to go. Just for the food and the history alone, it is tempting me!
