Thanks so much! I really don't know what I was thinking. You would have thought the whole idea would have been shut down immediately. Somehow, both Cheryl and I were all in until the crucial moment. Inexplicable. Hope you guys are doing well-- thanks again for the support!
This is hilarious...sad but hilarious! You poor thing, having an allergy to nuts, the greatest food in all the world. And that you were innocently looking forward to a chestnut festival...and building up your appetite even.Thank you, Eric, for another well written, funny entry. And congratulations on "stumbling upon"...and the unearthing of your large, ancient, prized "cultivation". 😂
Thanks so much. I still kind of marvel at the fact that I missed the inherent conflict between allergy and nut festival until the crucial moment. What was I thinking? Anyway, thanks so much for the kind comments and all of the support!
Thanks so much. I think our friends Franco and Rosanna still shake their heads over this one-- "what were the Americans thinking?!?" Hope Paris was fabulous. Safe travels home!
This is so great! Such a fun read! Poor EB! Your colorful descriptions made me also forget about your nut allergy momentarily! Until my heart sank as I remembered right along with you! 😩😅
Oh definitely. Mozzarella and chestnuts :) The other tricky thing was proximity. I'm not a huge stickler about not having a nut-contaminated environment. But this was on a whole different level. Definitely prefer the truffle festival, or the vino cotto one...

No pizza to be found?
