Blackberries and Apples

The candy apple from the Broadway Market was amazing. Four green apple with caramel and chocolate covered in pecans.

I also added one more meat to the blackberry bowl. This time grass fed steak. I love steak but I think I prefer blackberries with fish or white meat.

Butter lambs

We headed over to the Broadway Market for butter lambs. The meat part if the market was far superior to what we visited on grant street a couple weeks ago.

They had these awesome Mohawk style hats but they were all too small. I ended up with the best pecan and chocolate candied apple.

Basra the tortoise hides in the roses

The damn tortoise always burries himself in a holr he digs under the rose thorns. It makes me so angry. I almost suspect he knows this and hopes I just leave him outside overnight. Unfortunately for both of us it's just to cold still for overnights.

The man with the musical butt

The Country of Sicily

Pretty sure Sicily was not a country in 1997 when my grandfather's death certificate was filled out at Millard Fillmore.

100 years of farmers - geneology stevanato

I was going through a lot of the family documents I scanned while Nonna was alive.

I found this one document that maps a hundred years of Nonna's lineage issued back in 1941. It goes back even further though.

At the top it says, "Dai Registri Parrocchiali esistenti in questo Archivio, risulta la seguente discendenza ultracentenaria della famiglia di agricoltori." Which according to google means, "the parish registers exist in this archive is the following hundred years, descendants of the family of farmers"

Its neat to find out their names.

Grandmother: Pierina Stevanto (06/29/1915)
married 01/31/1948

Great Grandfather: Fortunato Stevanto (06/14/1878)

Great, Great, Great, Great, Great Grandfather: Pasqualin Stevanato (05/08/1789)
Great, Great, Great, Great, Great Grandmother: Girolima Salviato OR Salviato Girolima. Its weird because the other names on the document are lastname, first but salviato doesn't sound like a woman's name.
