for Paula! I drank this nectar last night and thought of our own Paula! It was delicious, but I still hope to sample some of Paula's homemade "juice" (hopefully she will hide it better next time!!!) 😀
We left Dallas on Monday and arrived in Milan on Tuesday. At his time, I am not sure what day or time it is. :blink: ( we are 7 hours ahead of CST). We walked all around the city and saw more shoes and handbags than even BR could shake a stick at!!! :clap: Saw Leo's The Last Supper this morning...it was unbelieveable to see it in person. A wonderful man picked us up and drove us to Bellagio on Lake Como this afternoon. George's place is between here and the city of Como. He will be very fortunate to see me while I am here. :cool: Tomorrow we begin to explore this beautiful spot. The water of the lake is around 68-69 degrees, so I will only experience it by boat. ;-)
Ciao for now!!! :wave:

Beautiful pictures and I'm sure they don't do the place justice. I really can't believe you didn't give a shout out loud to George. 😀

Okay...here's an idea. Next hodown, we have a limoncello tasteoff. I am the emcee. 😀I'd love to hve a tasteoff at the next hodown. I'd have to figure out how to get my limoncello cream to SoWal on the plane because I'm unlikely to drive and those airport people took my limoncello out of my bags last time. But, I could try again and just take the chance. Sometimes they let it through, sometimes they don't.
I agree with Audi that it can be too sweet... so maybe I'll try to cut the sugar just a little bit. It should be sweet like Bailey's Irish Cream is, but not sweeter. And I'd go with Vodka or Everclear pure alcohol. I'd have to do a side by side comparison.
And I'll try out limoncello (not cream) and champagne this summer, too.

Maybe I need to plan a SoWal Wenches abroad trip for next summer. :idontno: :blink: :shock:

the everclear recipe called for way too much sugar - like 6 cups or so. blech !
an there was no way-having last night - the last words he uttered before passing out on the couch in the basement was "i can't feel my tongue, it's all numby". and he was out. luckily shawn and i didn't have to carry him up to bed.

I just read this entire thread...I am so sad that I was in California while this thread was going on...I missed all the best stuff. Kitty...it sounds like you had a wonderful and magical time! :wub: I love Italy and would love to visit Lake Como one day!
I am so happy you had a magnificent time in Europe! 😀
Words can barely describe how wonderful Europe is, but you did a great job!:wub:
