AN ITALIAN AFTERNOON
May 17, 2018 by the long table

When my girlfriends and I were in Laguna Beach a couple of weeks ago, we thought the idea of spending an entire day cooking a big meal, sipping wine and listening to good music sounded like an excellent way to spend a Saturday. So this past weekend we decided to try it out by inviting family & friends to help prepare an Italian feast.


The Menu:
Cheese & meat platter
Ravioli with sausage filling
Sausage Carbonara
Caprese salad
Mix green salad
Grilled zucchini
Tuscan steak
Limoncello Cake






Even though my house wasn’t perfect, and I should have spent half the day doing laundry, I’m glad I decided not pay attention to any of that and just enjoy an afternoon with family, friends and really good food. Cheers to taking more time out of our daily duties to enjoy long meals with family & friends!
Happy Thursday!
