Sounds delicious. I haven't had pasta e fagioli soup in quite a while. And when I do eat it, it is almost always at Olive Garden. Their's is good, of course.
Funny story that could only come from a backwater town like I live in. There was an Italian restaurant in town, that actually had very good food. They had quite a bit of turnover in employees, as most restaurants probably do. One time they had this young lady who would pronounce minestrone soup as mine - strone soup. It was obvious that she didn't know much about the food that she was serving. Of course, to a non-Italian it's hard to see how "fagioli" is pronounced the way that it is (I won't attempt to write out the correct pronunciation).
Olive Garden's minestrone soup is good, too. Well, everything is, IMHO.
Was the weather where you are at in South Georgia bad a couple of days ago? Adel, where 12 or more were killed, is just up the road from Valdosta, where I have several friends. Thankfully, damage was minimal there. I know 3 or 4 people in Nashville, too, but I didn't hear of any damage there, either, thankfully.
ADDENDUM: To clarify, I was speaking of Nashville, Georgia.
