So just to disprove that "conspiracy theory" that Renato and I are hateful, dottering old losers...living some "futile" life, cowering in perhaps a dank basement, forging Rudolph Valentino documents...I took a few pictures of Renato's artistry yesterday. Pasta Norma was on the menu; an exquisite eggplant dish with all the Italiano trimmings. We had friends over, two artists... and it was a great evening with lots of laughter and chilled white wine. (The grapes were dessert)
