Hello my friend,
It's friday afternoon... Thanks God it's friday and in few hours I'll join my family in Tuscany and tomorrow I'll be at the beach....What I really need!
Yesterday evening I've invited Federica and two other friends for dinner. Mr B. wasn't at home and I wanted to spend few hours with my friend enjoying good food and nice talks.
You've already seen/read Federica's History about the evening (I LOVE IT!)
Thank you Fede, you've done a really nice job!

The preparation take me always a lot of time but at the end I'm happy with the result!
I love to have dinner at home with friends and I love to pay attention to all the details. I want my "guest" to be happy and comfortable chez moi...
In few hours I've organized everything...
Flowers, candles, food, cocktail and a fresh dessert. Everything was perfectly set up when they arrived!
Flowers in old bottles and candles in little paper bag...
Flowers: pink and white freesia
Cocktail: Bellini Cocktail, with peach nectar and lemon juice and iced wine
Food:
Gnocchi with pesto and tomato
Mozzarella and tomato
Chicken Salad
Pizza
Dessert: Coulis of Mango with coconut ice cream erved in preserve's jars.
Micaela loved it!
And this is Chicca...
I'm off for the entire weekend....
Have a great weekend darling, see you on monday!
HAVE A NICE WEEKEND...
STILL INTERESTED IN GUEST POSTING?

Love yoU!

RispondiEliminaOh what a wonderful evening that looks - but are freesias in bloom now in Italy? Mine were over months ago, in fact just yesterday I sifted through the precious bulbs and planted some in new places. Nothing matches the smell of freesias.
RispondiEliminaVery beautiful table setting, lovely flowers and candles, magic dinner and fantastic home, compliments!
