I'm going to leave Italy fat and happy

Tonight's dinner with my homestay fam:

primo piatto: torteloni e/o minestrone
(note: torteloni is like tortelini but larger and they're filled with spinach and cheese)

secondo piatto: piadini, una torta salata ricotta e spinaci, finocchi
(note: piadini are similar to quesadillas but they're a little different.)
(also: finocchi is fennel and it is an unexciting vegetable. my host mom is on a diet so she makes it.)

dessert: nutella e/o marmellata crepes

And there are leftover crepes for breakfast tomorrow !

Sorry there aren't pictures, but that would've been awk to pull out my camera at the dinner table.
