A good day in Rome

Today was really fun because for lunch we had chocolate butterfly pasta, but it didn't taste like chocolate.

[Above: Danielle and the cacao butterfly pasta, normally served with a generous knob of butter, cream, ricotta cheese and minced walnuts. Our landlord left us the pasta, and since most stores nearby are closed for the August vacation period, we ended up making an impromptu version of this for lunch, substituting peanuts for walnuts. -K]

At night we went to Castel Sant Angelo. It was fun. We saw a magician there.
