Mamma Mia, not again!!


The fun never ends! We visited an 18th century Olive Oil Mill and working farm where Nonna Maria gave us a demonstration on how to make mozzarella. After making the cheese, she selected four volunteers from the audience to take part in a traditional pizza making demonstration. And yes, you guessed it, Rew was yet again selected from the crowd, only I was asked to join him this time. We donned our rather crude aprons and had lots of fun learning how to make delicious pizza in the woodfire oven. Dinner proceeded starting with antipasta, followed by pasta, pizza and a lemon cake for dessert. Bellissimo!! After dinner we were introduced to the Italian lemon liqueur, Limoncello. It was so magnifico we bought some to take home.
