It's day three back in Perugia and things are normal here. I don't know how to explain it. Perugia has started to have a hometown kind of feel about it. A hometown where no one knows you and everyone speaks differently. Anyways I think the thing that makes it home-like is the family style dinners that we have at my apartment. So, far we have made some pretty awesome meals, in my opinion. In general, I'm head chef (dangerous I know), Samantha is appetizers and salads, Steph packs our lunches, and Hannah does clean up. It works out so nice and we spend a lot of time in the kitchen. That may be partially due to it being the only place where the four of us can sit down together.
Thus far our meals have been:
1. Tortelinni with cream sauce, salad and mozzarella basil tomatoes.
2. Cheap wine chicken which is chicken breast pan seared in cooking wine and onions which have been reduced in oil and vinegar. This was served with my (in) famous green beans.
3. Linguini with tomato sauce, salads, and mozzarella basil tomatoes.
4. Grilled cheese with pesto.
5. Sausage, pepper and onion skillet with roasted potatoes. (Samantha cooked this one and it was my favorite dinner of the trip)
It shouldn’t be forgotten that most nights end with gelato that we have started buying in bulk to cut the cost of going out. Tonight Steph is heading up kabobs and my mouth is already watering. I'll let you know how it goes tonight. Also, if anyone asks my Italian night name is Lucia and I'm from Alberta, Canada. Ciao!
