Daily Rant(er), no you didn’t miss anything, and actually yes, it is an Italian thing–from the moment you’re remotely seriously dating, your OH’s family becomes your inlaws. Weird, but there’s really no choice but to go with it. I still remember the first time someone referred to my mother-in-law in passing.

*shiver*

Good thing she’s a nice lady, otherwise I would’ve had nightmares

I hope this doesn’t post twice since I’m having a little connection problem…

OK, did I miss something? Are you and P married?

I didn’t think you were and if you’re not, why do you say “father-in-law” and “in-laws” when you speak of his parents? Is that an Italian thing over there?

Bec, you know the important things, and so long as you know that “vino” is wine, you’ll be just fine

*Sigh* I thought I was doing well with my Italian but I understood none of this I know: “Where is the hotel?”, “How much does this cost?”, “Can I have some water please?”, “Thankyou, Please, Yes, No etc.”, “I don’t feel very well”, “Can I book a table?”, and a few others, and unfortunately, none of this happened to come up in the blog ha ha ha.

This was great. I loved that you did it in Italian.
I see the peaches brought back memories for many. As soon as I read that I thought “yummy”. Sounds so good. I look forward to trying that one.
I’m excited about the foodie blog. I had a peek already.
