Here is the food I helped make and serve for this glorious wedding between Elizabeth and Chang (he's Turkish, she's Austrian)
Antipaste: prosciutto wrapped melon, zucchini salad atop fresh bread, 2 kinds of cheese, one being mozz. and another shaved meat
two kinds of pasta: 1) with bolognese and 1) with sautéed zucchini and prosciutto
Eggplant parmigianna
Whole sausage with roasted potato w/rosemary
Fresh peaches with Sangria
Wedding cake
My favorite thing all day was the potato. They made a huge bowl of fresh fruit salad but never served it-too
much food. So I made marmalade with it today-beautiful. We had 6 loaves of bread left over, 2 whole watermelons,
8 cucumbers which were never cut up, 5 whole melons (the orange variety) a lot of cured meat (?) and oh darn-
3/4 of a wheel of parm. reggianno, some kind of cheese with an olive in it, several pkgs of fresh mozz., 2 large
containers of zucchini salad, no beer, very little wine, 1/2 case of roma tomatoes. We have food for a long time.
Before the cutting of the cake, the music went into the garden for some dancing amist a smoke show. Cool. Rennatta
came into the kitchen (she's Roberto's sister and she's married to the HOT Giovanni) and danced with me. That was
fun. A few guys asked me to marry them. And then the fireworks. Some guys Black Lab ran away because of the
fireworks. They found him about 10 miles away. Yes, 10 miles!! They were from Switzerland. They played some American
music (THE WALL) and only I knew the words. And they played Frank Sinatra. All the music was fabulous.
It was a lot of fun being from America at this very Italian wedding
