I read the story Dinner of my Dreams by Jeannie Marshall.  This story is about how she has dreams about meeting her father and having serval encounters with him on the streets of Rome.  This story spoke to me because I have always wanted to meet my grandpa as well.  He passed away due to a heart attack when I was a year old.  Now I hear stories about him and what he was like but I can only imagine what it would be like to have a converstaion with him.  This story also goes into detail about Itallian food.  Although my grandpa was Mexican, he loved his food especiallly spicy meats and cheeses, which also reminded me of him!
