First Grocery Shopping in Rome
To nobody's surprise, the food market situation in Rome is everything you could desire, even if you are as gluttonous as we!

We keep on keepin' on, developing our improvisational cooking skills yet further as we move away from vegetables we know.
We take a vacation from our busy lives to pop over to Lisbon, a city increasingly popular with American retirees. And we can see why!
We're sad to be leaving Cyprus, but take the opportunity to list the things we liked most about our time here. And, ok; we're not that sad: more great destinations…
We focus our attention on a dish beloved by both Cypriots and us, the hand-held pie (pittes), made with filo and dough.
Being an island nation, Cyprus is no stranger to fish. Being Greek, it is no stranger to meze. Best of all, these two magical things combine!
We bus ourselves over to Larnaka for the day, where we discover Lazarus, squid, a salty lake, and a great bookstore!
We manage to find food, again, in a whole new country, and fill our shopping carts with Cypriot goodies.
Of the many ingredients we've enjoyed in Turkey, we single out just six, and highlight how they appear in some of our favourite dishes.
We struggle mightily to list only twenty things we love about our Turkish life, soon to be traded for another location.
