Fun series. I see a theme here ;-) As for the popcorn comment: Good Lord. Why would they? Popcorn and wine? I prefer the traditional cacahuètes served during l'Apéritif myself. -- Besides, it looks like Gail took care of l'apéritif dinatoire for you. -- Veronique
I love apéritifs dinatoires...though it's really just a French word for tapas, non? Excellent solution for a crowd that's too numerous to sit around a table.
The wine label in the Aperitivo in Bologna photo is fantastic. An apero is my preferred form of get-to-gether in France where our language skills can be a barrier to long dinner conversations. Bon week-end.
I love all the photos, but especially the first one where the the view is so clear in the wine, but blurry in the background. Hmmm, what does this say about life, wine, clarity? Maybe I need to drink wine more often!
Rosy No! :) I was just fortunate enough to have had the chance to visit a couple of times this month. Italy is wonderful, but I can't imagine trying to move there, bureaucracy wise. France is difficult enough!

Yes, there seemed to be little point to serve that popcorn!!

Italia! You're going to Italy a lot. Thinking of abandoning Paris for the boot?

You see a lot of popcorn served during the apéro these days. It's often stale. :(
Gail
Right? You did a much better job of serving up an apéro!

It is definitely a version of tapas. :)

I loved that wine label too!
