Rome might still be standing...


Chaource, originally uploaded by Rubber Slippers In Italy

But I can't say it'll be the same for this french chaource within the next 24 hours. Today was expected to be day "X" as long-deceased italian pseudoscientist Raffaele Bendandi had supposedly predicted years ago that the Eternal City would suffer a great earthquake on this date. Rome, I am glad to say, is still standing.

I am glad Rome is still standing too. That cheese looks like it will be good with some red wine!

Kat, Anne - I didn't even know about today until late yesterday afternoon! Heard it on the radio and then the MotH explained the rest. Wouldn't be surprised if some romans took the day off...

I heard that the 21st is supposed to be the rapture. I'll be at 6 flags Magic Mountain that day. Should be quite a ride.
That picture of the cheese is so delicious looking! Only 2 more hours until lunch time.

And I hope it stays standing because I cannot croak without seeing Rome! It's been my dream since I was a girl. Do you know that I continually fantasize about dropping a coin in the Trevi fountain? :)

I'm glad Rome (and your Chaource) is still standing. Well at least one of them will be in the end! Enjoy!
