Every year for the last 7 or 8, Rosemary, DJ's Sicilian mom, invites HD, Janet and I over for Easter and Christmas meals, which are always extravagant authentic Italian feasts. Most everything has stuffing in it as well. My favorite part of the meal is the shuschetta, which I can't actually spell. It's straciatella (chicken soup with eggs) with meatballs in it, and would easily beat up other soups. I've been coming to Rosemary's house since DJ and I first became friends 14 years ago, and relish these chances to come back to a second home, to feel at ease and enjoy good food, good wine and great company. Plus, there's always a ton of marzipan.
Here Janet takes photos of the straciatella plus meatballs soup. She uses a camera.
In this photo, Janet can't figure out the cheese grater, because it's not a camera.
Stuffed mushrooms AND stuffed peppers?!?!?! WOWOWOWOWOW!
The candy basket was made out of solid chocolate and had stale Peeps, Rosemary's favorite, in them. I brought home a huge chunk.
Janet didn't like that I took a photo of her with her eyes closed. She probably should have kept them open then.
