Money Tree For Bridal Shower
Sad garden: fresh flowers down the rain ...
silent trembling
the summer, declining to its end.
Drop gold leaf
down from the big acacia ...
Ride dazed and pale
Pound in his dying dream
lingers among the roses,
thinking of his peace
slowly closes her eyes the great
heavy fatigue.

Hot My Daughter's Jeans
Negroni or American? - The American Bar

Early in the morning I put it in church and catechism, and then they kill me from the bus and went "into town". The first stop was the drink with their friends over citizens. We would meet at the American Bar in Piazza San Marco (just under the clock).
I'm talking about the years when the barman had Angelo Leone, and where large or had their Negroni and the Americano, and I had little one as well but my version: it was as red as the other but composed of water and cherry syrup! !
Negroni
Ingredients 1 / 3 Gin (I use Tanqueray)
1 / 3 Red Vermouth (I use the Martini Rosso) 1 / 3 Bitter Campari
procedure

Generally there were the classic Mozzarella in Carrozza or mythical Pierini!
The mozzarella
think you know them a bit 'all but Pierini not believe unless you are Venetian and of a certain age ...
Take the sliced \u200b\u200bbread fresh, if you cut the crust.
Serve the ham cut thin enough, and it's melting cheese like Gruyere.
You create the normal toast, but the size of 5cm x 10cm and is now discovered the trick, pour in beaten egg (seasoned with salt and pepper) and put them to fry: the result in practice are the toast but normal Fried ... Just the thought makes me relive those taken with great appetizers!! and made me feel great ... these events have gone ahead only as far my 10 years, then the commitments we all have a little separate but occasionally we meet again with the rest.
Right now the American Bar is a bit 'expired, become almost only tourist and bartenders are changed: there is no longer there!
