La tavola Luana




We were invited to Luana's - look how beautifully she set the table... 

and how well her blouse matched it all!

Such pretty roses from the market...

... when we left she even gave me a few branches... isn't that sweet?


Everything tasted deliciously- but thepasta was my favorite!
Only native Italians can prepare them like that!
Pork fillet, vinaigrette (not on the pic), spinach italiana

We also had panna cotta, Italian chocolate tart and strawberries for dessert but silly me did not take a photo!

Grazie, Luana! Sei una gioia!

  4. You are so right about Italian food, Christa! I love your friend's table setting: it's the kind of thing I would do, with roses (I have some antique rose bowls I like to use. The effect is wonderful!)

    Luana's dining room looks very Italian, to me! I think it's lovely for you to have an Italian friend who allows you to "sample" her goodies!

    PS: I think I can see a certain wonderful lady I know, reflected in the mirror and... she's holding her new camera!
