America has reached 250 years, and I am grateful to be here, in the best country in the world. Thank every one of you who helps make this country a better place, those who have gone before and risked it all, and those who've paid the ultimate price to make the United States what we are today.

Great giveaway, Fausto! What a treat for Dan and his family, and indeed for all of us readers!
I grew up with sausages and cheese very like your gifts, around our kitchen all the time.
I am second generation Italian/Sicilian American (now Canadian).
When I feel homesick, I head out to the Italian neighborhood to bring some home. I will cut it with my Pattada next time, in honor of its Sardinian origins!

Dan,
I'm glad that you enjoyed the food as much as the knife. It's been a great chance for me to "export" a part of my traditions (both with and without a steel edge). I owe alot to this place and to the people I met here. The knife giveaway was born for this reason. The rest...well, I can't hide my roots (nor do I want to), and here (as in many parts of my country) sharing food and wine would complement sharing anything else...including a knife.
I really really appreciated your enthusiasm in receiving the whole package, and the fact that you shared the whole thing with your family. It was, indeed, a gift from a distant friend, no matter we've never met in person. Yet.
