On November 17th 2006 the Lord brought me & Z together in His love across an ocean and two continents. These are glimpses of our life together - the life of A&Z - much of which takes places in our Italian home with sixty-three stairs! Phil. 1:6
1 John 4:16
"We have come to know and have believed the love which God has for us God is love, and the one who abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him."

Z Saves the Day
So, we've been doing quite a bit of entertaining over these past few weeks... results? We're pretty exhausted. Add to that the fact that due to Z's HORRIBLE cold and cough neither of us managed to get many hours of sleep in last week.
That's all the preface for what's coming. Yesterday, we were preparing for dinner together with friends. Things were going very well. Zeno had just decided to jump out and take advantage of the gym, I was finishing up the Fennel soup and then going to take a quick cat-nap. All that was left was to puree the soup, so that's what I was doing, when, ThWap-SPlosh-FlWinG! It managed to EXPLODE EVERYWHERE!!!! At which, I burst into tears... Partly because it startled me to death, partly because it was HOT and splattered on my arm a bit, but mostly because I was tired and I immediately knew my chance to take a nap was gone...
Anyways, I went to Zeno for help because, as you can see, I was bit overwhelmed, and my marvelous Amore, gave me a big hug, grabbed the mop and a sponge and set right to work. He licked up that disaster in no time - walls, counter, floor, toaster, power converter, blender, etc and in the end I was able to grab that cat-nap and he made it to the gym!
So, though the walls came out clean, the dirty dishes stacked up high (also because, due to an infected finger I was forbidden from cleaning the dishes for a week!) and we didn't manage to wash them before dinner. They were our task today - Z conquered the mountain of dishes while I "took down Christmas".
