this morning we stopped at Vecchio Forno and i got a raisin and rosemary pastry for breakfast, it was so different and so good! we played telephone in italian class today, so that made for a great day of learning. after italian class we went to the sandwich shop that we had dinner at the previous night, SandwiChic! its such a yummy place, i got a prosciutto, mozzarella, and balsamic sandwich. YUM. we brought our sandwiches back to the apartment to eat and finish our italian homework. in the afternoon we had wines class where we tasted Super-Tuscan wines: Casadei sonno Mediterranean and Borgeri Rosso. i loved the Casadei! after wines class we went back to the apartment to get ready for dinner. we had been eyeing the central market. central market is made up of several different stalls containing bulk buying and meal buying for foods and drinks such as fish, meat, pasta, pizza, gelato, wine, beer, and so much more. we settled on getting pasta. i got the rigatoni with ragu sauce and a glass of wine the bartender paired with my pasta dish... it was delish. we also got some gelato at central market, i got the banana with chocolate drizzle... soooo good. evidently a Gelateria can most accurately be judged on their pistachio and banana flavored gelatos... this one passed the banana mark for me. yum. it's fashion week here in florence so we walked around admiring outfits on our way back to the apartment before we went out to karaoke night at lion's fountain bar - that was fun! tomorrow we are heading to Pisa, Italy after our wines class via the train so have dinner and see the leaning tower of Pisa!
ciao! britney
