Monday, 26th June -- Home late last night, still sort of woozy and stupid but functioning -- Imagine 45 relatives, 10 kids, and NO DRAMA. Am I lying, you ask? Nope, I swear -- not a bit of drama -- some sugar-crazed kids, lots of hooting and hollering, but that's it. Amazing, you think? 2 days of mostly rain, but who cares? I know all the shop owners, check in, see how business is going (they're all very seasonal and like squirrels, they have to save for the winter) and naturally, I stimulated the economy yet remained fiscally responsible. We have 12 birthdays and that meant 12 incredible birthday cakes from Tom at Tullio's. Someone just suggested that next year I should post a photo of the cakes we have each day -- they are truly unbelievable. I will do that -- please remind me next year, all right?
