Day 8

 making the cream

 We made the dinner in reverse order, first Tiramisu since it has to refrigerate for a while. I wasn’t able to eat any since it contained 9 raw eggs and raw anything isn’t so hot for pregnant women, but every one else seemed to enjoy it.

I did however snack on some Lady Fingers

Next we made pesto for one lasagna and a ragu for another.

  Working together to get everything done- the team that came to Virginia from Italy stopped by too.

 the apertif made last- bread (toast) meat chesese and tomatos... kinda a do it yourself brushetta.

 Enjoying all our hard work!!

 This photo is for Joey- a new fruit I tired, it is the size of a kiwi, has skin like an apple that you peel off and the texture of a plum. It was sweet and juicy

 

I know it is before lunch in the States, but here the day is nearly finished. Since it is our last day in Alessandria the Italian GSE coordinator made arrangements for our team to spend the day cooking a traditional meal with his daughter.
