Homemade Italian Dinners in Paradise

French fries made in an air fryer, nice and crisp and not oily and also white wine with focaccia.

you already know I am living in paradise compared to many other places I could be during this pandemic. But now you know I have some Italian friends who are excellent cooks. Giuseppe is a baker so he made pizza with a very nice but unusual crust as a starter. So, basically, eat your hearts out.

Last but not least is Fábio’s spaghetti
at the end of the dinner Giuseppe brings out his homemade something to drink. After tasting it I really thought it was something to put in my gas tank
And all this was before Spaghetti
and of course we need to top it off with Elizabeth’s fruit salad containing some passionfruit and adding a little red wine for flavor
At the second dinner Giuseppe made some wonderful rye bread and also some other bread with olives in it. Fabio made guacamole which you can see in the red top plastic container. There was quite a bit of guacamole left over so Fabio gave it to me to take home and I gobbled it up for breakfast the next morning.
White wine with some Campari mixed is an unexpectedly very nice taste
The homemade bread came with feta cheese with olives in some olive oil
And I guess you can never say you have had different kinds of Italian food if you have never had polenta and fagioli. Dean Martin told people that he is favorite foods were pasta fazool (pasta fagioli) and a big bowl of spaghetti.
What would an Italian dinner be without a tiramisu?
Thai rum with pineapple is a nice after dinner drink
Fabio brought these stickers back from Italy for me
and I have them proudly displayed on my Honda PCX which is a BMW in disguise which you can see from the sticker on the right side, just barely
