“Waiting in Italy”<\/h1>\n

When dining out in Italy, we found that it’s not just about the food – it is about waiting for it. Especially on Sundays, dining out is a time to share with family and friends, and we loved to be there to just be a part of the celebration.<\/p>\n

They say, “Good things come to those who wait”, and I will add, especially when you do your homework.<\/p>\n

Italian menus typically list only the name of the dish (also in Italian). We translated menus, and looked up the recipes with descriptions of them from our apartment, and made a list of what to order.<\/p>\n

The painting is done entirely in layers, with poured paint. No detailing was added.<\/p>\n

\"teaksouls\" is a word that John and Cindy coined to represent themselves as they moved aboard their live-aboard sailboat loaded with teak (their dream from the start of their togetherness). Many boats have teak soles (floors), but theirs had the two of them, and they both love teak, so .... there you go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

teaksouls.com began as the story of the adventure of John and Cindy aboard Alexandra, their Slocum 43 sailboat that became their home for a ten year stretch. If you are interested in what life aboard a sailboat is like, visit the original teaksouls.com<\/p>\n\n\n\n
