The first day we arrived our daughter put together a yummy little aperitivo for us - she loves to entertain as much as I do.
We had fresh, delicious mozzarella cheese with sweet ripe Sicilian tomatoes along with prosciutto wrapped around sweet cantalope melon. She also had a wonderful bottle of local red wine ready for us! And of course, this feast was just the prelude to dinner and the beginning of a night full of delicious food.
I'll be sharing some of our adventures in Italy over the next few posts.
We were able to take a fantastic and delicious cooking class with Sharon Oddson Gargano from the very delicious restaurant called Trattoria Garga.
We were also able to meet a fellow blogger, Eleonora from aglio, olio e peperoncino and took a wonderful street food stroll with her while we were in Rome during the last two days of our trip.
FHFB, being the authentic Sicilian that he is, of course has cousins that we were lucky enough to visit on their farm in Panicala, a small village in Umbria. What a fantastic experience!! Here we are eating (of course) fresh pasta and drinking delicious local wine!
More of these experiences to come in the next week!
I've missed you all and look forward to blogging, visiting and commenting!
Ciao, bella!!
