Dinner Party # 2



Giuliano and I had our 2nd little dinner party this past Saturday for friends who were coming from out of town and for friends who could not make it to our first dinner party on the 7th. It was a more intimate party than our first; we had such a wonderful time as well with my good friends. Giuliano made his pizza - mushroom and olive - from scratch and his gnocchi with two sauces - creamy mushroom and red meat sauce, and this time we had cheese plate appetizers - fontina, parmesan and gorganzola with a honey nut mix, and fried pizza dough wrapped with prosciutto, tiramisu made by moi supervised by Giuliano complete with green tea cake and muscat - yum! Friends came who had met at a time before or who worked together so faces were familiar, conversations were flowing, and Giuliano and I had more time to spend with our guests which was a really great treat. And this time, I snapped pictures throughout the evening to capture the preparation process through the aftermath. Grazie all from coming!
