Australia, A Land Down Under

Australia I do surely love ya

I've been to Sydney and Canberra

Thoroughly enjoyed the Taronga Zoo

Even though they overcharged us too

We got to see and pet the kangaroo

The koala and nocturnal creatures

AUS, a land full of many adventures

My first trip down under was by peradventure

I gave it a go, surfing at Bondi and Maroubra

My second trip there was mostly ministerial

My third by all means was most memorable

As it was my honeymoon with my wife Karla

We stayed in the lush Shangri-La hotel

The view of Sydney Harbour was swell

Next door was also something to tell

The Canadian embassy with flag flying

Which made Karla feel happily home

The comfy hotel bed, she wants to own

Hillsong was a spiritual experience to tell

A youthful and lively church, most phenomenal

The Royal Botanic Gardens was also wonderful

The Opera House was charming and beautiful

An exquisite and most unique architectural

Masterpiece, upon which all eyes feast.

We never made it to the Great Barrier Reef

After a week in Fiji, we just wanted some peace

No bridge climbing for the newlyweds on ease

The temperature in September did well please

The Floridian out of the sweaty summer sun

Plus the Aussies seemed like loads of fun

Witty, clever, and kind most of the time

Near the ferries, aborigines sat like transients

Playing for us their peculiar annoying instruments

A woman posed as the queen in gold, fully painted

Shop keepers sold merchandise undaunted

With many of the prices we weren't delighted

Yet the gelato proved plenteous and delicious

We bought a little clothing, not too pretentious

Our final evening, we did a lovely dinner cruise

Very relaxed, with time to meditate and muse

Luna Park was brilliantly lit up like the moon

We were as joyous as kids in a crazy cartoon

Australia is a place I highly recommend to you

This vast and glorious country has much to do.

Introduction to Italian Foods

Italian food comes to mind when people think of absolutely delicious food. After all, it is one of the most fascinating cuisines know to the modern world. The fascination really piqued during World War II when the world was greatly exposed to the Italian culture for the first time. The rich aroma, spices and fresh vegetables still stirs my soul when I think of all of the great Italian dishes that I love.

The real trick behind this tantalizing taste is that Italian food is low on the ingredient list, but don't believe that! Many different types of Italian food exist, and each one has its own special taste that people love. Pizza, pasta, sausage and fish are what Italy is most famous for. There are even vast variations in these dishes just in the different regions within the country and this is proven in the many diverse cultures and peoples living in Italy. Northern Italy's traditional foods are lasagna, Parmesan cheese, mortadella, polenta, dry-cured hams, stuffed pastas and Bolognese sauces. The Naples region is famous for pizzas and mozzarella cheeses. The Tuscan region is famous for various meats, white beans and unsalted beans, while the Caldaria region is known for its spicy Italian salami.

Lamb in various forms is very popular across the country and Sicilian cuisine is well known for its excellent seafood dishes, which interestingly have an Arab influence due to the use of pistachio and lemon in these seafood meals. Sicily is also famous for gelato also known as ice cream in the rest of the world with a slightly different twist because of the use of sugar and other flavorings.

The Veneto region is well known for risotto, which is a dish full of fish and other various seafoods along with beans and other legumes frequently added to this dish. The Tretino-Alto Adige regions are famous for their goulash gnocchi dish, with are prepared with lard, olive oil, tomatoes and crauti.

Other delicacies from Italy include Valtellina pumpkin, Brescia, bergamo, smoked bacon, truffles, prosciutto, bebbiolo, rye breads, pork fillet, panissa, pesto, trenette and many delicious deserts. The interesting thing about Italian cuisine is that even within a single region, there may be several different ways of preparing pasta, sausages and vegetables - some even use herbal liquors to get the perfect taste for their foods.

Each of these unique types of Italian foods are served with unique style. Special meal structures and courses are adhered to strictly so that each course builds on the taste of the previous course. Meals typically start with appetizers that can include campari, cinzano, Suze, Byrrh and Vermouth. These are served both hot and cold depending on the second course. The second course can include fish and other seafoods, meats and pork. Then of course, let's not forget dessert! Italian desserts usually consist of a variety of cakes, ice creams, cookies and coffees.

Vacationing in Spain

As you plan your trip, you will come to see that vacationing in Spain is a wonderful idea. It is very affordable and provides you with the chance to explore another part of the world. Living or vacationing in Spain just cannot be summed up in one sentence, nor can a single person's understanding sum it up, since everyone's Spanish experience is different.

If you are interested in embarking upon your own adventures in the country of Spain, you could consider purchasing a timeshare if you end up loving it, so that you can return year after year. And each time you will be able to add a new dimension to your own Spanish adventure story. If there are people who want to live in or stay during a trip to Spain, then there are people who can manage accommodation for them. Spanish property agents can offer two way services; to both those who want to buy or rent property and also to those who want to sell or let property. And if you want to be in Spain during the running of the bulls, then it is strongly recommended that you book your Spain accommodation early to avoid disappointment.

Vacations in Spain may also be a good choice for the enthusiastic adventure junkie. Whenever one travels to Spain, you will simply have to go to Madrid before you travel to smaller towns like Pamplona, which is only a three hour train ride from the city. The partly finished cathedral is a beautiful and unique building, and should not be missed when you are on a trip to Spain. Or maybe you would like to add a dash of Tuscan cooking and a pinch of Provencal cuisine to your vacation with some cooking classes, which always includes the meal with wine after the lesson, of course.

A winery visit, wine tastings and an olive oil seminar can also complement your relaxing getaway. When it comes to French and Spanish wine culture, the main difference may be that, while the French savor their wine and bottle it away to be admired from afar, the Spanish simply drink theirs! Wine and other alcoholic beverages are also cheaper in Spain than anywhere else in Europe.

Imagine the memories you or your family can enjoy as they fondly reflect upon all the fun shared while you were in Spain. You may enjoy thinking about the wonderful wine and gelato. Or maybe the fact that everyone pretty much walks everywhere, and hat there are many things to do to keep you entertained.

Art and architecture lovers, ecotourists, gourmands, history buffs, wine aficionados, culture scholars, and even outdoor sports fanatics -- Spain truly has something for everybody. Its great weather and many varied attractions make it fully for vacationing year round.

History of Gelato - An Italian Ice Cream With an Intense Flavor

Frozen treats have been around for thousands of years. There are various fascinating stories surrounding these tasty frozen treats and still some mystery behind the origins.

The Emperors of China had flavors such as honey or fruit added to snow to make frozen desserts.
It is believed that Nero, Emperor of Rome, sent slaves to the mountains to bring back ice and snow that was then mixed with fruit or honey.

It was the addition of milk that first made these frozen treats "ice cream". The Tang Dynasty in China claims the credit for adding cow and goat milk to grounded rice and letting it ferment. Ninety four icemen were in charge of this duty for the King Tang of Shang, not a job that you would easily find today.

Bernardo Buontalenti, a Florentine cook, is credited with inventing modern ice cream in 1565. The first ice cream machine was invented by Sicilian Francesco Procopio dei Coltelli.

At first, gelato was a treat only for the rich. It could only be made in small quantities and had to be eaten within a few hours since it required too much ice to keep it frozen. It wasn't until the first gelato carts were invented in the 1920s that the popularity of the concoction really grew. The city of Varese in Italy claims credit for this invention.

With the creation of better ways to refrigerate and freeze foods, frozen desserts become more available to the general public. As the popularity of frozen treats grew, different countries created their own versions. Gelato is considered the ice cream of Italy. The frozen dessert is made with many of the same ingredients as ice cream but with considerably less fat content and usually less sugar. The reason gelato contains less fat is due to the fact it's made with milk instead of cream.

The mix of water and sugar in gelato is what keeps it from freezing solid like ice cream. The mix acts as a kind of anti-freeze. Generally, gelato is made in two ways. One is a hot process that includes pasteurization. In the U.S. a cold process is also popular.

While ice cream can be kept in a freezer for several months, gelato is best eaten within a few days. Gelato is flavored with a variety of things including fruit and cocoa. Nuts, cookies, waffle biscuits, and chocolate flakes are sometimes added later, after the gelato is frozen.

People eating gelato for the first time are often surprised by the intense flavor. With less fat in the mix, the flavors are more pronounced.

Less air is whipped into gelato as opposed to ice cream. This makes in much denser and also adds to its more intense flavor. The consistency is softer making it so it has some similarities to soft-serve ice cream in the U.S.

When looking for a place to try gelato, always insist on one that uses natural, not artificial flavors. Preferably, look for a shop that makes its own gelato in-house. Once you've sampled the intense flavors of gelato you may never return to ice cream again. Whether you choose a fruity concoction or chocolate covered in sprinkles, you won't regret your choice. It's certainly an indulgence on the pallet; one would never guess it's a healthier alternative to some other dessert options.

Ice Cream, Gelato, Sorbet - What Are the Different Types of Ice Cream?

Today you can enjoy a frozen dairy treat in just about every corner of the globe. However they are not all the same, ice cream in America is not the same as gelato in Italy and kulfi in India. So what are the most popular forms of these delicious desserts and what makes the different?

Ice cream - to be labeled as ice cream in the USA a product must contain 10% milk fat and more than 20% milk solids by weight. This is a relatively high level of fat and gives the American treat it's traditional smooth creamy texture. There are generally two types, "Philadelphia" style and "French" style, the latter is made with a custard base while the former has no eggs.

Gelato - traditionally made by hand in Italy it has only 7-8% fat which is less than what is required by law in the US. It usually has a much higher egg content of as well

Sorbets, sherberts and granitas- are almost identical products that don't contain any or only a small amount of milk; these are a often a fruit puree mixed with ice. The will be less smooth and often have very intense taste. These were the forerunners of ice cream and remain very popular.

Semifredo or frozen custard - a smooth, very creamy and richer alternative. It is generally not mass-produced and available only at the point of manufacture. It has a high egg content.

Frozen yoghurt-is a low or no fat alternative using milk and yoghurt in place of cream. It yields a sensation of tartness.

Kulfi is the Indian version, that is not whipped, has little air content and so is very dense. It is made by thickening sweetened milk so it has a very intense base. Combined with unusual flavors to a western palate, it makes a very unusual taste.
