Nice Weekend

Wow what a busy and great weekend. My sister came to visit from Orlando so we went to lunch Saturday to catch up. Seems we never get to talk anymore so we finally made time. It was nice and relaxing and I think we actually finished our conversation without being interrupted. Mission accomplished. Then I was off to serve at an event catered by Felices Italian Deli. All Italian people celebrating pops 75th birthday. Music, drinks, lots of people and of course enough food to feed an army!! Everyone seemed to have a fantastic time reminiscing, celebrating and enjoying one and others company. Sunday Dad and Mom came over for Fathers Day and I cooked. Appetizer was marinated artichoke hearts wrapped in prosciutto with provolone cheese. Next was salad with strawberries ( I have to give my sister credit for this) and a lite raspberry vinaigrette. The entree was my famous Chicken Marsala, heavy on the mushrooms. The wine I served was an Italian Red, Il Canneto from the sangiovese grape. My brother Ron surprised us for a little while. Then my niece Adrianna came by too. It was a nice day to get together relax and enjoy Fathers Day together.
