Today, your job is to find the perfect Italian breads, pastries-and most importantly-cakes, for your Italian cousin’s wedding. With only a month left until the Italian wedding in Capri, and invitations still pouring in, they plead with you in Italian, “you should help us!!” After six hours of getting quotes from different Italian bakeries, eating hundreds of Italian grissini and pastries all over Italy, and compiling notes with your opinions of each, you are confident you have made a great sacrifice for your Italian cousin! You have pleaded with every Italian bakery, “you should give us a deal for feeding so many people!” You finally return home exhausted…and a little sick. You tell them in Italian, “you should see how many Italian pastries I have eaten today for you!” However, when she reads the quotes the friendly Italian bakers have given you, it is apparent from the look on her face that maybe you were not the best person for the job! As the Italian bread begins to swell in your stomach, you are beginning to feel a little ill. Maybe next time she should do it herself!
