Is it a bird? A plane? A firework? A Barilla ad with pasta masquerading as end of year festivity? No matter, this beauty from Barilla - which dates to a few years back - is wonderful to see and appreciates. And yes, I still long to the days when Barilla used to make ads with Steffi Graf as she used her Wimbledon prize as a replacement for a broken pasta serving dish or wore the penne as a necklace.
