I really enjoyed this. Brought tears to my eyes, too.

I hope you are well. And if I don’t talk to you before,
have a Happy Halloween. (If Halloween was meant to
be happy.)

Love,

Aunt Grace

From what I've read, I have the impression that authentic Italian biscotti have less sugar and little or no fat -- and often use olive oil rather than butter when they do have fat. The extra sugar and butter make for the softer texture of more American-style biscotti. So keep looking for that ideal biscotti recipe -- it's out there!
