Taste of Melrose Park

Wow, what a beautiful day!!  

We had perfect weather and decided to check out Taste of Melrose Park.  You probably can't read this sign....here are the last names of the officials sponsoring this event--Serpico, Abruzzo, Italia, Anquiano, Taconi, Mato and Prignano.  Yep, you guessed it.  This is the Italian-American annual festival.  It's only a few miles from us so I can't believe we haven't been yet.  (What kind of an Italian-American is Chris, huh!).  This was so much fun.  The most fun was the people watching.  At risk of offending, I won't go into the details.  Soprano-like...I'm just sayin'!  We watched some bocce with tempers flaring....this is serious people:-) Ate a fried bologna sandwich, braciole, lupinis, rootbeer float, clams and cannoli.  Then, the girls got to ride the carnival rides.  So fun!!!
