Re: serving suggestion

Personally, I don't like the oil dipping myself, but I know others do. I have some imported white Balsamic Vinegar on my shelf. Got it on markdown but didn't know what to do with it. How much vinegar would I add to the oil? It wouldn't stay mixed would it? would i serve the oil from the bottle?, I don't have - oh geez, what do you call them? - those oil & vinegar holders. Adding pepper and other italian spices to the cheese or oil sounds like a good idea too, but I'll try not to over-do it.
The 2 breads I got are organic "Artisan" breads. One is Onion-Dill and the other is Rosemary Olive Oil. It's all I can do to keep from cutting into them now. Bread's a weakness.
I'll also have shrimp and cheese and nuts and candies. I know I spelled mosticcioli wrong but spell-check thinks it should be "mystically". Actually it is organic whole wheat penne rigate. Jar sauce - Bertolli organic olive oil, basil, & garlic. Do you detect a theme here? I'll include sweet italian sausage and throw in some pepperoni. Also getting a pan of Casaburo salad from a local restaurant. It's their house specialty salad, that everyone loves.

I like either some cracked black pepper or balsamic vinager added to the oil for dipping. Sounds yummy! I was back at the dentist again today- got the permanent filling in my root canal tooth, and they prepped if for a crown which they took the impression for today. So, for now I have a weird tooth with the enamel removed in my mouth. Ick- I'll be so glad when this is all done.

What I'd like to know, is how people serve the breads they dip in oil; thought someone might know. I had purchased extra virgin olive oil for a baked potato horsdoerves, and now have no oven. I got some specialty breads and wondered if I should serve the oil on the side. But I think it's supposed to have something else, too. Is it parmesan cheese?
I can't bake my pie so I ordered a white choc raspberry cake roll from a specialty shop. Lasagna is out so I'm going with mosticioli made with some organic ingredients. I got a blend of 5 cheeses to sprinkle on top - maybe I should have picked up some parmesan.
