Doing the Neptune festival





Out and about
Working the crowd
Talking RESCUE and getting loud

Who invited the oodles
Of poodles?
Are those sesame noodles?

Wait, I see crab cakes.
And funnel cakes
Feed me for gosh's sake.

No. I don't want to look at art
Or chatckas, or darts
I want to sit and eat food art.

Fine, let's go down a bit
Find the shade and sit
And EAT!!!

I love street food, don't you?


Sand sculptures?  But why? Why can't I sniff them?  JD would like to "baptize" one. I would like to sniff it.

Whatever,
Hoomans.
They suck the life out of life with all their rules.

Tortellini sotto i portici: sarĂ  domenica da gourmet

Il Consorzio Modena a Tavola ripropone la fortunata iniziativa nata nel 2011 Tavolate imbandite lungo via Emilia centro per consumare il piatto prelibato

    Il Consorzio Modena a Tavola è pronto a stendere le sue migliori tovaglie sulle tre tavole, che verranno preparate nel cuore della cittĂ , per la terza edizione di “Tortellino sotto i portici”, domenica. La manifestazione offre l'occasione di pranzare in una location unica da via Emilia Centro passando per piazzetta delle Ova e terminando sotto i portici che giungono in via Scudari. «SarĂ  un week end molto intenso per Modena - dice l'assessore Stefano Prampolini - con il grande concerto dedicato a Lucio Battisti, il mercato dell'antiquariato (che per l'occasione verrĂ  spostato in piazza Roma) e, appunto, “Tortellino sotto i portici” che sarĂ  un'ulteriore occasione di mettere in vetrina le nostre eccellenze enogastronomiche davanti ad un pubblico composto non solo da modenesi». Protagonista indiscusso del menĂą, ça va sans dire, sarĂ  il tortellino. «Il pranzo si svolgerĂ  in due turni - spiega Paolo Reggiani, vice presidente del Consorzio Modena a Tavola - dalle 12.15 alle 15, e prevede un menĂą composto da antipasto con prosciutto di Modena DOP, Parmigiano Reggiano con Aceto Balsamico tradizionale di Modena (ABTM), Mortadella Favola a cubetti, a seguire i Tortellini in brodo, come secondo Cotechino freddo a fette sottili con salsa verde e cren, come dolce gli Amaretti di Modena con un bicchierino di Nocino di Modena. AccompagnerĂ  il pranzo il Lambrusco nelle quattro DOC. Il tutto per 15 euro». Il vice presidente ha poi sottolineato l'impegno di tutti i ristoratori che aderiscono al Consorzio, affinchè la manifestazione sia il risultato del connubio tra cuore e testa, tra amore per la buona tavola e promozione delle nostre eccellenze. I tortellini saranno ancora una volta preparati dalle sfogline dell'Associazione La San Nicola, che ogni anno organizza a Castelfranco la Sagra dedicata al re della nostra tavola. Gianni Degli Angeli ha voluto lanciare un appello alle autoritĂ , ma anche agli imprenditori locali affinchè il tortellino goda di una piĂą ampia promozione: «Il tortellino il simbolo di identificazione massima del nostro territorio, dato che in esso racchiude la maggior parte delle eccellenze enogastronomiche da noi prodotte: prosciutto, mortadella, parmigiano... e non dimentichiamoci che viene sempre (o, almeno, spesso) accompagnato dal Lambrusco. Quindi proporrei una esportazione massiccia al di fuori dai confini di Modena, affinchè tutti conoscano il vero tortellino, il lavoro e la tradizione che porta con sĂ©». La novitĂ  di quest'anno è la possibilitĂ  di gustare tortellini senza glutine, ideali per chi ha problemi di intolleranza alla sostanza. In piĂą, dalle 19 alle 24, in concomitanza con il concertone, sarĂ  possibile cenare con il “Tortellino da passeggio”" acquistando il ticket da 6 euro in piazza Torre. In caso di maltempo, i portici permetteranno lo stesso lo svolgersi della manifestazione.

    TRANSLATION

    The Consortium Modena At The Dinner Table is ready to roll out his best tablecloths on three boards, which will be prepared in the heart of the city, for the third edition of "Tortellini under the porticoes", Sunday. The event offers the chance to dine in a unique location by the via Emilia through the square Center of the Ova and ending under the arcades that come in via Scudari. "It will be a very busy weekend for Modena-says Councilor Stephen Prampolini-with the big concert dedicated to Lucio Battisti, the antique market (which for the occasion will be moved in piazza Roma) and" Tortellino under porches "that will be a further opportunity to showcase our gastronomic excellence before an audience composed not only by modenesi». The undisputed star of the menu, ça va sans dire, {goes without saying] will be the tortellino. «Lunch will be held in two rounds – explains Paolo Reggiani, vice President of Modena at the table-from 12.15 to 15, and includes a menu composed of antipasto with prosciutto di Modena DOP, Parmesan Reggiano with traditional Modena balsamic vinegar (ABTM), Fabled Mortadella, cubed, followed by the Tortellini in brodo, as the second course cold sliced Cotechino [stuffed pig's foot sausage] with green sauce and horseradish sauce, followed by sweet Amaretti di Modena with a small glass of Nocino di Modena. Lunch will be served with four DOC Lambrusco. All for 15 euro. The vice President underlined the commitment of all restaurants that adhere to the Consortium, for the event is the result of combination of heart and head, between love for good food and promotion of our products. The tortellini are once again prepared by Sfogline of the Association of San Nicola, The Association that organizes every year in Castelfranco the Festival dedicated to the "star" of our table. Gianni Degli Angeli launched an appeal to the authorities, and to local entrepreneurs for broader promotion of the tortellini : «the tortellino is the most identified product of our territory, it symbolizes our region since it encompasses most of the food products we produce : ham, mortadella, Parmesan ... and let us not forget that it is always (or at least often) accompanied by Lambrusco. So I would propose a massive export outside the confines of Modena, for all to know the true tortellino, the jobs and the tradition that brings with it». New this year is the opportunity to enjoy  gluten free tortellini, ideal for those who have problems of gluten intolerance . In addition, from 19 to 24, coinciding with the concertone, you can dine with the "To Go Tortellini" by purchasing the ticket from euro 6 in square Tower. In case of bad weather, the arcades will allow the same the unfolding of the event."

    Look at that menu! Seriously.  It's only 15 euros per head. Momma.... so worth the trip.

    We can make it if we leave now!

     antipasto con prosciutto di Modena DOP, Parmigiano Reggiano con Aceto Balsamico tradizionale di Modena (ABTM), YYYYYYYUUUUMMMMM Skip the balsamic, on the side for mine!

     Mortadella Favola a cubetti,  [Favola means Fairy tale. Cubed Mortadella at my house would be a Fairy tale come true!!!!!]

    Tortellini in brodo, 

    Cotechino freddo a fette sottili con salsa verde e cren, skip the cren- I hate horseradish. I love stuffed Pig foot, stop the face momma!

    Scome dolce gli Amaretti di Modena con un bicchierino di Nocino di Modena. YOu can have my portion of that.

     AccompagnerĂ  il pranzo il Lambrusco nelle quattro DOC. Il tutto per 15 euro» And you can drink that.

    It is like being assaulted --- After all they don't call it  a

     FLASH GUN 
    for nothing, you know?
    We all think we have PTSD from being flashed awake with that infernal BLINKIE.
    JD says he has "Fried retina syndrome".  [mhh Fried... sounds delicious]
    The Wendy says that the constant presence of the BLINKIE has made her self conscious and she has sunburned eyelids.

    Second Annual HUMAN SHAMING : chapter THREE


    She is forever NOT minding her own business.

    If we are playing and having fun and sounding a tiny bit loud, she wants to know what is going on.

    Sometimes I want to say stuff like:
    "We are solving the world's energy crisis and you keep interrupting us"  or...

    "Dang it momma, we were in the middle of the alchemy equation that would turn dog poop into gold and now your interruption has cost us the solution!"

    "Momma, we almost had a peace model that would have resolved the middle East crisis once and for all!"

    or "Momma we were working on the ultimate shoe storage solution, but your interruption was so distracting we lost interest".... hahahahah she would cry at this one.

    Sometimes, we, four leggeds just wants to play, sniff, growl, have fun with each other. LIVE with this MOMMA!
