For anyone that was checking my site over the weekend, there was a problem with my hosting’s database server and I was unfortunately punished. I’m sorry if you stopped by and found an error! That definitely didn’t help the case of the Januaries I had on Friday!

Hopefully I should be up from here on out, and tomorrow I’ve got a great post waiting to be shared. I’m making backups of my database in any case.

Two important things:

• Keep preparing for World Nutella Day (we need your entries by next Monday!)
• The winner from the An Introduction to Italian Candy - Caramelle contest is comment #40 - Su-Lin! Congratulations! Email me your address, and pick a second commenter (through #56) to receive the second package!

Buon lunedi - Happy (finally for me!) Monday!
