Labor Day weekend calls for a nice little gathering with friends.. and a plethora of food! Tasha, Megan and I had a grand time putting an Italian feast together at my apartment.
The preparation... a valiant joint effort, I must say.
Bruchetta appetizer with red and yellow tomatoes, fresh basil, olives, minced raw and roasted garlic and cracked black pepper to warm up the pipes!
The setting of the table... my mouth was watering.
The Spread: Risotto with butternut squash and mushrooms prepared in a crisp white wine, and a side of baked asparagus with freshly grated parmesan cheese.
Its all about presentation! Megan insisted we purchase some flowers for our candle-lit dinner.
We love the little tree that grows out of the wall of my patio. It has gotten so much bigger than it was the first summer I moved here!
What is a fancy feast without dessert?? We had to go out to Teany to get some Vegan carrot cake and Pumpkin Teany Chinos!
Ahhh what a lovely little evening.
