Bucatini all’Amatriciana and Finding God

Posted on February 7, 2021 by piazzalife

Bucatini all’Amatriciana will help you find God. It has been my favorite dish of all time and everyone who discovers it, feels the same way. Here, you watch me make it and choose the wine to match. Try out this dish and I guarantee it will be your favorite, too. #amatriciana #bucatini #bucatiniallamatriciana #amatrice #abruzzo #rome #guanciale #pasta #tomatoes #tomatosauce #pecorinoromano #forzaroma #asroma #grazieroma #antonellovenditti #claudiovilla #stornelli #romanfood #montepulciano #montepulcianodabruzzo #invinoveritas #invinoveritaswinesnyc #vino #wine #wines #vinello #vinone

Say Dog, NOT God ! Children’s Machine Programmed To Refuse To Say GOD

Posted on February 7, 2019 by piazzalife

At a Children’s Museum, a machine asks for you to put in 3 letters and, after pressing a button, it spells it out for you. If you press again, it will say the word. I chose 3 letters and spelled “God” but the machine would not say it. When I rearranged the letters to spell “dog”, it not only spelled it out, it said the word and had a barking sound to go with it. The “funny” irony of it all is that the Museum is in a former Catholic Parochial School with Crucifixes still engraved on the outside of the building. This video is NOT meant to start a vicious debate; it’s only an observation. This is why the comments will be disabled for this video.

Le Zeppole Di San Giuseppe, Happy Father’s Day

Posted on March 3, 2018 by piazzalife

RE-POST : After a year and a half away from this blog, I posted two articles. I took another break but then my site went down and, when it was brought back, the last two articles were missing. This article I am re-posting was one of the most well received and most read. I had to re-post. Here it is AGAIN !

This Article on Le Zeppole di San Giuseppe is broken down into two parts, the first detailing the Pastry and the second detailing the actual Meaning of the Day.

THE ZEPPOLE
During the Middle Ages, there was drought and famine in Sicily. Praying to their Patron Saint Joseph, Sicilians begged for rain and promised a bountiful feast if Continue reading →

Interview of the Week : Susana Moreira

Posted on April 2, 2015 by piazzalife

Writing comes very easily to me except when it’s a huge topic. The reason? I get anxiety trying to remember all the things I want to mention and tying them all in. When I first started my blog, my intentions were to not only Continue reading →

Easter : My Favorite Holiday

Posted on March 1, 2015 by piazzalife

Some Holidays, like July 4 and New Year’s Day, give me a gross and depressing feeling. Those days are usually slow and dreary. The anti-climatic, hangover feeling of New Years Day, which usually is Continue reading →

The True Meaning Of Christmas

Posted on December 6, 2014 by piazzalife

This article is not meant to mainly address the “War on Christmas”. First, it is not my style to use such a phrase. Second, while I do believe there has been a national effort, through political agencies, media, and academia, to strip away any Christian meaning from Continue reading →

When one person is able to change at least one thing for someone else and remain with that other person long after they part ways or, in some cases, leave this Earth, it is a remarkable accomplishement. When someone is able to Continue reading →

Interview of the Week : Andrea Careri

Posted on October 1, 2014 by piazzalife

Sometimes, you could learn a lot from something or someone totally opposite from you. I often ask certain people for advice or opinions that I know would probably differ from mine just to get an outside view. I am a very impatient person. Andrea Careri is not. He does not react reflexively and, in fact ,calmy Continue reading →

Alone for 40 Days

Alone for 40 Days

I often attempt, and usually fail, to get it through to my overly-social wife that people need alone time and that being around others too much can take away from much needed solitude. I do tend to have a very loquacious nature ( my moon is in Gemini ) and I do Continue reading →

My Doni Tondo, Dinner at Felidia, And Tons of Coincidences

Posted on July 22, 2014 by piazzalife

Life is bizarre and full of pain. Sometimes you get what you always dreamed of, probably because you have envisioned it for years and have played it over and over in your head. I wanted a wife from Italy, believing the best come from Naples and also Salerno. Would you believe I found one that is born and raised EXACTLY IN BETWEEN BOTH Napoli and Salerno??? There are so many other things that I had to wait long and hard for, and some I have yet to get…and may never get.

Michelangelo’s Doni Tondo is a painting which has haunted me my whole Life. When I finally got to Florence in the Continue reading →
