I guess Bianca wasn't lying when she saw a mouse the other day.
I saw one last night. On the kitchen counter.
Probably looking for food that wasn't there.
So the theory that Bianca is behind this to enforce a spring cleaning can go out the window...
By now...I'm not 100% sure if the mice actually live in our house.
I have not found any nests anywhere and I cannot think of any place where they could reside.
So today we put traps everywhere and poison to.
I put them in regular food places (like the kitchen counter) to fool the highly gifted mice.
We didn't want to stay in a house full of traps and poison so tonight we are staying over at our friend Fabio.
I wonder if we come home to a mice massacre tomorrow...
I drove to Fabio's place and he was outside waiting for us.
He wanted to take us to Little Italy.
Which is not an area in Rotterdam but a small 'real' Italian Supermarket he found.
The moment I entered the store I was taken back to my trip with Bianca to Sardinia in 2016.
The same smell and the same awesome food and drink.
In the front I saw something I never tried before.
I asked the girl that was helping us about it.
She said that it was made from all the remainders/leftovers of sausage making.
Very fatty yet delicious.
Sounded good to me, so I took some with me.
She sliced it really thin.
We also took some raw ham, Mortadella and a cheese Fabio recommended: Burrata.
The complete loot:
Fabio had a nice plank and I made us a selection of the things that we bought. It was very delicious.
Later Fabio will make us a Carbonara. The classic style.
He perfected this dish over a couple of years.
He promised he will make a post about it.
Check him out his name @fabrews.
Have great weekend everyone!

Hum mice still in action. I guess it is so cold out there. they are coming from out side.
Good looking out for the Italian place. Glad you enjoyed it.
Keep on steemin'
Try keeping foodstuffs in storage,no food remnants in the house,keep the waste bag outside the house. If they don't have access to anything edible in the house,the rats would look elsewhere.
That's the first thing we did, All the food is in containers and the house is now food free after the spring cleaning. Now we wait :)
Ok bro goodluck.
If the mouse is soo smart, it already moved out and it still let you under impression it is still in your house. That’s wat I call intellectual mouse.
BTW: the food looks soo delicious.
I hope they moved out as well :)
Oh yeah, I see from you, my friend is hunting for mice in full swing and is sure that the result will be required. However, this does not prevent you from meeting your friends and this supermarket surprises with its abundance of food, especially I liked the department in thought products, here I would also be interested. Well, in the end, to taste meat under a glass of good wine in a great company, what could be better! Thank you Mark.
I think that You are the happiest man in the world. Your smiley face, sroty about family, little happiness or fun of life are made you unequaled from others. While I was reading your writing, I was thinking about it. It feels great to know the little happiness of someone's life. Thanks a lot Sir, for sharing your life story :)
I'm not sure about the happiest, but I am happy in general. I prefer to be positive in general.

Such meaty goodness, one of the best places to get food in Rotterdam! Just wait for the Carbonara.
Really nice reminder of my childhood, thank you!! :) When I was a kid we used to go to Italy to spend our family holiday every year! :)
And I just really love how they make everything so delicious! You can even only have some bread and olive oil as a dip and it is just pure magic to your tongue! :)
Italians really know how to make peoples sense of taste happy :D
Oh I miss Bella Italia <3
I still remember the smell of the country road leading through all the wine grape fields and forest in the summer heat! And the wonderful and sunny temperament of the people there! :)
And of course the songs they play in their radio and which stuck in your mind like forever :D
Seems like you had a wonderful day! :)
I hope there wasn't a mice massacre in your home dear :D
I love Italian food too. Just the simplest of things can taste amazing. Like a good olive oil and bread, maybe with a little bit of salt or just a piece of ham. They know how to make good products.
Italian store is my favourite in Edmonton.
You should adopt a cat.
Buon appetito ! :)) I hope the mouse adventures will end soon, as entertaining as they are :P
Oh my @exyle. Mice on the kitchen counter is getting beyond a joke. Glad to hear you've taken some drastic action.
You would have loved where we had lunch today. it was a Brazilian eat all you want where they bring huge skewers of meat to the table and carve it then and there. There was about 5 different kinds of beef including sirloin steak, chicken wings, chicken thighs, gammon, sausages, to name but a few.
Hope tomorrow is not too awful when you wake up!
I await your update! 😊
It's called a Churrascaria (Churrasco means bbq in Brazilian-Portugese). I love going to places like that as you rightfully mentioned :). Great food.
So much deliciousness in your post today, the pictures are amazing especially the food pics made me hungry. That little Italy place is a treasure. I hope your traps/poison will soon catch mickey(s).
Mice can live in walls, the space between floors, etc. use the traps until Mickey dies. Hopefully Mickey has no local cousins.
That big sausage of sausages looks awesome. I can't wait to hear how that tasted! Good luck with the miceacre!!
It tasted great, very fatty but a perfect combo with a beer/wine.
I guess the theory of Mickey and Bianca getting @exyle to do lots of spring cleaning as been debunked now, looks like a great place little Italy and I love the wood board with the lovely food pickings, wine yummy..steemfat3.
Those creatures are so unbearable. Sometimes they act as though the house is owned by they and the occupants.lolzzz
Even with their presence, you still found a way of entertainment.
Weldone @exyle, you inspire me alot. I will sure check out @fabrews and see what he got on his table
Save some cheese for the mouse!!
We love Italian food, well, any Mediterranean style food really. A night in with your finds from Little Italy sounds like a perfect Saturday night! Some cured meats, matured cheeses and a full bodied red wine. It takes us back too reading your post. Grazie! :D
✈️👫
Daaamn...that meat and cheese board looks amazing. Sitting here at nearly midnight making me hungry...off to the kitchen I go. :)
wow that was beautifully presented this looks great and its delicious :D
this looks great!
burrata is a hell of a tasty piece, did you like it?
Little Italy looks good store with some amazing food!
I don't like the use of poison. This is a better idea: Watch "How to Make a simple "Catch and Let Go" bottle MOUSETRAP (that works!)" on YouTube
Wow genius and much better then poison or killing @maestroq
Thanks. Hoping Mr. @exyle will give it a try. 😉
enjoy guys,
Nice
Your kichen is very beautifull and your food is very delicious I like to eat your food
Mouse is very disturbing.I hope you enjoyed the time in Fabio's place.The collection of the store looks good.How was the taste of the foods.In the next post let us know what happened to those mouse.Thank you for such kinds of post.@upvoted and resteemed
excellent story , nice writing, great post, thanks for sharing
Nice story and pics. I don't think you want to use poison with mice in the house. If a mouse dies in a wall, etc. it will stink for days. It will not be good.
Excellent post great pictures
just adopt a cat even more talented than these cursed mice, I'm hungry once I saw the pictures I admitted the Italian cuisine is really very good
The journey is fun, all the food looks delicious
I am so sad I opened your post.
I'm on a severe diet and your pictures almost killed me.
:-))
However, and seriously, I'm glad you're having a good time with friends and good food.
Wow.. Amazing, travelling around the world but still missing the Steemit World. Congratulation and keep sharing us. Hope someday you can to journey in my Country, Gayo, Central Aceh, Aceh Province, Indonesia. Have a nice travelling @exyle. Vote or you.
Follow me too @khaimi
BRo your this post make me hungry.
I can't resist myself to eat something like this.
I like they way you represent food stuff is very awesome.
and it's a quality time when we spend our day with our close one.
Cheers!
Enjoy your stay. Are you trying to put mice to extinction, have mercy on them sure they just want to be happy, just as much as you want to be.
So, finally the story of Mice has been resolved :D :D
By the way Little Italy seems a wonderful place to buy anything related to cooking specifically ;)
This content is very useful...
