Fortunately for us, the ladies that I work with (which I've been meaning to get you up to speed on) have asked a local restaurant here in Bologna to prepare a "Proprio American Thanksgiving" for friends tomorrow night. Giancarlo's mom supplied us with her traditional American recipes, and the restaurant supplied everything else for us.
If you're in Bologna (or in Italy and want to stop by Bologna), come to Farina Living Ristorante in via de Fusari 9 tomorrow night. You can bet I'll be there with my trusted camera to capture this very rare event.
Regardless how the turkey comes out, it will definitely be an interesting story.
