Well this is a little embarrassing...Is it actually possible that our last post was in October of last year?!? I know we haven't quite kept to the once a month intention when it comes to our dinner gatherings, but we certainly have had more than one or two since last October! I guess after an evening of food, wine, and friends the idea of writing a post about the evening just escapes me.
But after another lovey evening with friends, I'm recommitted to sharing our adventures. And what a wonderful evening it was! We feel very fortunate to have such a great diverse community of friends around us that will take time out of their very busy schedules to share a meal together.
And on the menu tonight we had a simple meal (that's what happens when I'm working until 6:00 and people are coming for dinner at 7:00!) that consisted of:
Aperitif of Prosecco with fresh raspberries (from Mary and Wally's garden-- thank you!)
Spring snap peas (from Stephanie's garden-- thank you!)
Trusty, crusty bread with olive oil and balsamic
Spring salad of edible flowers, strawberries, blue cheese, and candied pecans
Orecchiette with farro, favas, english peas, and pecorino
Lemon curd (ala Julia Child) filled tart with fresh strawberries and cream
Thank you everyone for such a lovely evening.
