Caponata, Pasta alla Norma, Focaccia, and Sicilian Cannoli's....oh my!! I headed up to "Cook on the Lakes" again last week with my friends Heather, Cindy, and Courtney. Note to Courtney's friends and family: yes, she really did go to class, COOK, and did well! ;-). Best quote of the day occurred one hour into the cooking class...."Is it time for the wine yet?!". I won't tell you who said it.
For those of you who read my posts, I went to see Francesca in June for a pizza and panzerotti cooking class and we had such a great time so I had to return. My friend Heather was visiting from the USA and her family is from Sicily so I chose the Sicilian class for her. Off we went to Cook on the Lakes in Colazza, Italy. Now onto the important pictures!
