A New Years tradition in Italy, lentils and some sort of cotecino or zampone. Cotecino is a giant hot dog looking thing that comes in a bag. You place the bag in a giant pot of boling water and in about 10 minutes it's ready. Zampone is a similar type of thing but all the "meat" is stuffed back into a pig's leg/hoof and then cooked in the same manner. I think of it as a giant hot dog kicked up a notch as Emeril would say.

Ciao Gina! Buon anno! I love Zampone, but I can not eat the kind stuffed in a pig's leg. It is great with the lentils, but I love it with mashed potatoes too.
I guess you guys didn't go to France to ski?
Talk to you soon!

J, are you never going to let me forget the trip we took to the goat farm on Maui. I know you don't like goat cheese but it was delicious! See you on Oahu sometime soon.
