After getting home at 3am the night before then waking up at 7am to skype with family, Dan and I decided to go back to bed and sleep in a little. When we woke up, snow was on the ground, lunch was ready and Christmas supper was in preparation. I could not believe it was time to eat AGAIN. Zia Teresa excused herself as she said lunch wasn’t much because we had a big supper to eat this evening. We were more worried about having to eat again than not having an elaborate lunch before another feast. After lunch, Gian-Luca’s girlfriend, Elise and her dog Camilla, Elisabetta and her husband Michele and their dog Marte came over for Christmas supper. You may think it’s funny I included the dogs but no lie they eat with us. I’ve seen maybe dogs get scraps fed to them under the table but I have never seen a dog get spaghetti fresh from the pot toppled with sauce and a few meatballs, then freshly grated cheese on top. It’s dog heaven in Italy! These dogs do not get scraps but their own dish! It’s was pretty funny. We had a nice evening together after eating another feast, again seafood eyes included. We took a family picture in front of the Christmas tree. From Dan to the left it Michele, Elise and her Dog Camilla, Gian-Luca, and Zio Mimmo. In front is Elisabetta and her dog Marte and Zia Teresa.
