I have an Italian friend who often shares with me some of
the wonderful foods he eats. While I
love Italian food, there is one delicacy from Italy that I have never
tried. I'm talking about Spumoni. Typically it is of three flavors, with a
fruit/nut layer between them. The ice cream layers are often mixed with whipped
cream. Cherry, pistachio, and either chocolate or vanilla are the typical
flavors of the ice cream layers, and the fruit/nut layer often contains cherry
bits—causing the traditional red/pink, green, and brown color combination. Spumoni differs from ice cream in that it
should always be sliced, never scooped.
I don’t know the purpose of this, however, if I have to slice it in
order to try some of this delicious ice cream, I don't' mind.

Today is National Spumoni Day. You should be able to find it at your
grocery's freezer, or any Italian grocery.
So don't miss out on this wonderful treat, and have a slice of Spumoni
today.
