F&F...Friends & Food

Last weekend we were visiting Mario's best friend Andrea and his girlfriend Monica. They live near Brescia, in a lovely area also near the Garda Lake. It wasn't the first time we were there with them, and every time it's just like being home. They are soooooo nice and great hosts! Thank you!!!

One of the reasons we were visiting was to test their new purchase: a Nintendo Wii and many games to play together! We spent hours playing funny games, expecially sports and Raving Rabbits 2. Soooo much fun! Next day our muscles were sore for all the moving with the remote controls of the Wii!!!!
Here is a shot during the games:

On Saturday, after a nice walk in Salò, we spent the evening until deep night in Sabbio Chiese, where it was scheduled an incredible "food" happening. It's called "Sabbio con gusto" (which means, more or less, "Sabbio with taste"). It's a culinary walk through the tastes and the beauties of the village and its typical food like Casoncelli, Polenta Tiragna, Spiedo and Pestom. We ate so much! Basically, we had something like 26 stops where, every time, there was something different to eat or/and drink. At the end of the night we were sooooo full, but happy for the very new experience. Perfect end was a beautiful fireworks show at midnight.
Here are some stops:

Oh we love the Wii too :) Isn't it funny how out of shape you feel after playing? Haha!
