Alfio is a teaching assistant at ASM and his parents live in Naples - near Pompeii's ruins. He picked us up after our day walking around Pompeii and brought us to his parents' home for a lovely lunch. This was one of my favorite activities during the winter holiday. The food was delicious and the company was even better! We had a lot of laughs and conversations mixed in English and Italian. : )
After we ate, Alfio's mom taught my mom how to make the delicious greens that we had. We also had pasta, sausage... then fruits, panettone, coffee, aaaand homemade limoncello AND a walnut limoncello-type after-meal drink.
Pretty cool watching the two moms communicate about cooking together -- different languages, same conversation : )
Luca and Alfio -- brothers
