Breakfast??

This morning I woke up to find my breakfast dishes out (Margherita usually leaves them out in the morning) and this delicious dessert that she made last night-- Sachertorte. It was delicious, of course, but I can't believe she wants me to eat that in the morning! She loves pushing sweets on me. I'm not complaining but its hard to start the day out with a wonderful chocolate-y dessert.

This is another dessert she made the other day... it was a pear tart with amaretto. YUM. Since it is winter now, she loves to bake and spend even more time in the kitchen. Last week she wasn't feeling well but still baked this tart and then made a delicious dinner. She amazes me!



Last night Molly came over for dinner because she wanted to interview Margherita for her Italian class. It was so much fun having her over!! We had lasagna, beef with ricotta, fried egg, and prosciutto, then a whole assortment of vegetables. Plus dessert. And fresh olive oil. It was a great night and we had such a blast together!!
