I've posted pics from John S's New Year's Eve party last night at /Yanda/pix/2003_01_01/.
There was a large Italian contingent. I'm not exactly sure how they were connected to John or his housemates but they were damn sexy and fun. Upon arrival they fired up the stove and began cooking weird and wonderful things. Sadly, I have no pictures of the food. One dish was some kind of boiled pork thing called something like "cotechino". This is something only eaten traditionally at New Year's. Then there was "lenticchi" which was a lentil dish and quite tasty. Apparently, if you eat lentika on New Year's Eve you will get 'a lot of money' in the coming year. So that was good news. And there was a sweet bread called "pandoro" which came fresh from Verona three days ago on the plane with the dark Italian beauty who fed it to us.
Aside from cooking, they were also big on dancing and laughing and kissing. We like the Italians, I think.
