Birthday

My parents have been here since Tuesday evening, both to help me find an apartment, and to celebrate my birthday with me. Today was also the deadline for the Marie Curie fellowship application, which I submitted about an hour and a half before it was due. Good thing that's out of the way.
So tonight we went out to dinner at a somewhat better restaurant, Olio e Convivium, where I had some foie gras and bean tortellini, and lamb shanks with green beans (which also had foie gras on them). It was pretty good, though I must say I'm not a big fan of foie gras. The wine we had -- a Brunello di Montalcino -- was quite excellent though.
