The pasta boy

Seb lost one of his baby teeth while biting into a soft, warm, Nutella-filled cornetto in a bar on a rainy morning in La Spezia in Italy. He carefully wrapped the tiny tooth in a napkin, finished his cornetto and then asked for another one, smiling encouragingly at the waiter over the bar counter as he pushed down on the lever that smooshed the Nutella into the flaky pastry. Italy: the country that gave us chocolate hazelnut spread for breakfast. The following morning, our son woke up to a letter and 2 Euros from Topolino, the Italian tooth mouse, who wrote that, "Yes, he loved fast cars" and "Yes, he drove a red Ferrari". He added that, like Seb, his favourite foods were pizza and pasta and that he had several homes; one in the Colosseum because he loved history, one in the Vatican because he was a religious sort, and one in Venice because he loved floating the canals in his gondola. And so, Seb fell in love with Italy. As we all do.
