Ahhh Pizza! Sono Peina! (I'm full!)

OK...for those of you who know me well...you know I LOVE food. I love cooking, I love eating, I love the food network etc. so there had to be a post about the food here in Rome. On the way home I stopped around the corner to grab some dolce (sweets) and pizza. I know my fellow pilgrims to Italy know this already but for those that don't, the vend0rs have a variety of rectangle shaped pizzas in the window and you tell them how much you want. I just ate a piece of pizza topped with fried potatoes (yes, you heard me correctly...fried potatoes) that was so good, I ate it before I could take the picture! Mmmmm! OK..I'm sure my mom will pick up on this so I'll explain... I don't eat mushrooms and there is a piece of mushroom pizza pictured above. The vendor just added it on to my order for free. For some reason they like to give "La Americana" free food. Of course I'm not complaining. Maybe they think we Americans eat too much!! Imagine that!?!? Anyway, the food here is as good as you would think it is and better!...pizza, gelato, pasta...Oh My!

I tried to respond a while ago I guess it kicked my response out. It seems like you're having quite a stay. The pizza kind of looks like Volcano's in B.C. . A little dry though.

Now I know you don't eat mushrooms I guess you still don't know what you're missing. Take care and start eating good food so you'll stop fainting.

Take care and be careful, -Sean-....P.S. are there any good sunflower seeds?
