It seems fitting to post an ice cream dessert during a blizzard, right? Well, the ice cream is from this past Sunday when it was a bit warmer. The addition of lemoncello helped warm us up too!

This past Sunday Supper was an Italian spread for special friends. We gathered by the fire with some interesting treats from a summery cantaloupe and prosciutto to a delicious baked eggplant Parmesan. I also put together an interesting crostini with green olives, parsley, pistachios, lemon, anchovies and ricotta cheese. Sounds weird but it was a really great mix of ingredients.

With great friends and good conversation, it was a great dinner all together!

I’ll post the recipes soon. In the meantime, stay warm!
