MONICA’s CAPRESE TORTA

How will we ever get used to Monica’s being in India with her college for 2 MONTHS?! Her Caprese Torta (Chocolate  and hazelnut cake) will be missed, but she’s already asked if she can stay with us in Decatur for a while when she returns home…to get to know the head of Sustainability at Agnes Scott better…and to make us a Caprese Torta! Hot diggity!

DINNER WITH JULIE SHAFFER AND HUSBAND MIKE

What a special dinner we had with Julie Shaffer, the former President of Slow Food Atlanta, and her husband Mike. I think if Peter and she spend very much time together, they will have the Atlanta Slow Food Movement headed in a dynamic direction.

SUNDAY SUPPER AT LOVE IS LOVE FARM

The only thing we missed in our Sunday Suppers in Italy last year was being on site at a farm when we ate! On Sunday, we went to an event at Love Is Love Farm where our host and the farmer there, Joe took everybody for a guided tour through the farm. Then we sat down to a Sunday Supper in the middle of the farming fields, made by local chefs from several restaurants. The whole event was FABULOUS! We’re looking forward to the Slow Food Sunday Supper they have planned for November 10th! Sounds like fun to me!
