On A Claire Day by Carla Ventresca and Henry Beckett for December 03, 2012

Oh yes-I also miss the ones they had in Germany-every day at the little imbiss right outside of the Mainz Hauptbahnhof I would buy a variant with the consistency of a soft pretzle, slathered with homemade butter and farmer kase-decadent!

But I can’t throw stones at a fresh Krispy Kreme either. Decisions, decisions….

Prosciutto – and yes it is worth it :)

Customs “confiscated” our prosciutto, salami and cheese when we came back from Italy. I’m guessing they had a good lunch that day.

I was a bit surprised to see that her prosciutto made it through customs. They usually don’t allow meat through.

Oh, I imagine Lulu remembers what a soft touch they are.

Not necessarily. Depends on the cat. Mine are very loving.

Every kiss begins with Italian prosciutto….which would still be better than blood diamonds. Of course, tropical fish don’t care about either one!

If I brought back any food from a trip (even the orange from the tree that frightened Cuddles when we were in Puerto Rico), I hid it well in my clothes. Nobody takes MY stuff!

Or in the US, it’s just called “ham” and it sells for $2-3 per lb. ;-)

Claire knows her cat’s love language!

that’s so sad
