We had heard there was a new Italian restaurant in Brady and since we had to leave the medical supply place and then come back after lunch, we decided to try it out for lunch. I'm not sure Vince was as impressed as I was but he's used to eating my cooking . . what can I say? I should have taken a picture before I ate half of it.

Madelinetosh had some new ...
