Villi is not to be feared, but appreciated!

Grazie, bello!

I'm glad that I keep you amused, Vilco! But I need to ask you, Vilco
and Nick, how *does* a person with almost no Italian read and post on
the 'cucina' Italian Usenet group?

Seems to me that it would be hard to do unless I could get the posts
translated first.

You keep me amused, too, Desi, but that's because of Denny. LOL

When I read a post about a dish that I've also made, or that sounds
interesting, I reply in English. I found that trying to translate my posts
and recipes using various dictionaries was an exercise in futility. I don't
have that many years left! If you post a good recipe, you'll get some good
replies. If it's REALLY good, someone might even translate it into Italian!
When they've done that for me, I've saved the translations. They're like
gold to me. You might get some occasional flak, but I've seen you around
for a while and know you can handle it in a demure and ladylike manner. ;-)

Heck, I won't even understand any flak, if it's in Italian! After all,
just about everything sounds wonderful in Italian. ;-)
