Tell the World

Fell asleep w/ the earbuds in again
Woke to the news that - the pings heard in the Pacific were not from the  ' Mal-Asian ' flight that went down

The traffic coming into the city from the East is monumental ... then there were 3 accidents on the QEW ( runs the lakeshore into / out of downtown ) and the 401 ( our big arterial )
Monumental b/comes unbelievable - as in OMG , ' why do I do this ' kinda of trip

Weather in the ' big Smoke ' - nice. We  hit 60 some and skies are brightening

Last night , we hosted a dinner at Restaurante Tratelli. RT was once the ' Crazy Tomato ' The food at CT was excellent to VG.
The name changed ,  the waitstaff seemed the same ,the layout was the same and food was just as good.
I ordered the antipasto pizza on insalata , prior to our guests arriving
Someone ( M by initial ) questioned my choice
Until , the dish came Dino - mite   Flatbread pizza w/ antipasto veg and proscuitto , sitting on top of a fresh salad w/ excellente dressing

The guests were a cousin and 2 second cousins ( daughters )
The occasion was welcome home to T.O.
from Asia and Australia - 4 months ago
from Africa - 3 months ago
from Calgary - 1 year ago
This family travels a bit

The dishes were all reportedly tasty and plentiful
One note : my veal parmesan came on lots of spaghetti w/ flavourful sauce but ..... eating fairly slowly , I got to the bottom and ........ the pasta was still hot down there   Very rare that

To-day , off to the accountant for some really bad news - our portfolio made money - so , we pay .... lots , in income tax
