the ingredients |
|
Mary Lou made croutons with just cut up bread and sunflower oil and they were delicious! |
|
heating the mushrooms up! |
|
putting the finishing touches on the mushroom soup |
and the desert...
|
we made 2 cakes with 3 layers
(kat you'd be proud of me!) |
|
it's a very simple cake to make! we just mixed nutella with cream |
and the final meal... very delicious!
|
heavenly! |
when thursday came, tommy kept telling us it will be one of the best days and we would just kind of laugh it off, but by the end of the day thursday we were all saying "this is the best day ever!" we started the day off by going to ninfa gardens. it was so beautiful and the weather was absolutely perfect. the best we have had yet. our tour of the gardens was a sweet lady who actually lives at the garden...
|
my beautiful roommates! |
|
Susanna |
once we were done at the gardens, we went to our best wine tasting yet at Marco Carpineti Farm and Winery!
|
my big, Brittany, who is got in engaged over spring break in Cinque Terre :) |
|
over looking the vineyard |
|
the olive trees |
|
the best olive oil I have ever had. |
|
we got a tour of the winery and saw the process of making the wine! |
|
then came the wine tasting :) |
|
they fed us some great food along with the wine!
and I am now a fan of red wine, I prefer it over white :) |
I was in Venice this past weekend and will hopefully be updating that blog soon! we had such a great time and had perfect weather!
Have a great week!
Red!! That's my girl!! :) :)
