When in Rome ... Yes, You Can Have Rice on Passover.
'This has not been a banner couple of years for being home for the holidays.

I missed my wife’s birthday cake while on assignment. (I do not recommend this.) And then, having moved to Italy as the paper’s new Rome bureau chief, I faced a different dilemma: I was in my new home, but my family, finishing the school year, was still back in America.
So Passover seemed to be the next holiday on the lonely reporter’s list.'>>>
