Okay, my turn! I am 15 today. I awoke to a table full of gifts. All clothes and shoes - Yeah! I am particularly excited about my new "Affliction" T-shirt (of Kelly Pavlik fame!) Of course, Dad asked what I want for dinner to which I anxiously replied, "Carbonara!" I have been contemplating this question for days now! I first had Carbonara in at Ristorante la Carbonara in the Campo de' Fiori in Rome, and from then on I was hooked. The combination of eggs, parm and guanicale (kind of like Italian bacon) create a creamy pasta sauce that I dream about at night. Dad orders the guanicale special from La Quercia in Iowa. Dad, Sonny and I are off to Six Flags for the day! (Mom is still recovering from her surgery.) Aren't birthdays the greatest?P.S. Sorry Cousin Joe Joe, copious amounts of bacon wins out over steak every time! And, you don't have to look too closely at the picture to see there is little doubt Mom & Dad brought home the right baby!
