I'm back!

So to briefly condense the happenings in the past few days: Silvio's farm did not work out for me. So, I'm back in Piedmonte at Finocchio Verde! :) And very happy about my decision to leave.

Today we have 23 people coming over for dinner (como ristorante) and four French agritourism guests arrriving for dinner and staying for a few days. Busy, busy, busy! Right now Isa is busy preparing a crostata con ricotta (i'll try to copy down the recipe) for dolce and Mario is dry grilling thinly sliced eggplant with salt to make antipasti of rolled eggplant filled with fresh ricotta and topped with a salsa of tomatoes, olive oil, basil, salt, pepper, and garlic. Got to go!
