Eating Outside & Italian

We are entering the fall season which means for us that we eat outside every meal possible - we have a table on the front porch that overlooks our animals and pasture, a table on the back porch that overlooks the courtyard and the waterfall/pond, a table in the courtyard for bigger groups near the gas grill, and a picnic table over under the poplars and maples near the pasture. So, no shortage of places to eat outside depending on the mood, the weather, and the menu.

Also we both love Italian food and, outside of Italy, my wife Susan is the best cooker of Italian cuisine I know. Seriously, she is so creative and uses fresh ingredients. I can't begin to tell you how good the fresh farfalle with pesto was, or the spaghetti with cream sauce, or tonight's dish I can't even pronounce but it was Italian sausage with fresh tomatoes and peppers and garlic etc.

Anyway, that's the way it is here on the farm as the seasons begin to change. Come visit anytime.
