Happy Halloween!
Sunday October 25, 2009
Halloween is a relatively new thing in Italy: When I moved here in 1982 nobody celebrated it and I had to explain the Halloween scene in ET to my friends.
Things have changed, and now Italians are enthusiastic devotees. Not kids, however, but rather adults, who welcome the Eve as an occasion to get dressed up (I recall seeing a bare-chested demon and demoness a few years ago...) and go out on the town. Lots of parties, and lots of party foods: things one can nibble as one talks or between dances.
A selection of Italian party and finger foods.
