Lisa and Gary, what bread!
“…Ten years of trying to find a spot in one of your classes: I finally got in! It was worth the wait! I finally found you!..” Lorraine wrote after our Bethesda class, adding “What a wonderful cooking class this has been! Every part of it was fun and delicious! Next stop: Assisi!’
Lisa and Gary, our warm and welcoming hosts, thanks once again for hosting yet another superb Bethesda cooking class. Our fourth this year? And your home-baked breads are always such an appreciated – and delicious! – welcome to each guest. Mille grazie!
And Joan, thanks so much for connecting me to Lisa and Gary – and so glad our “Italy connection” continues. Just think: our ties to “all good things Italian” started years ago during our junior year abroad in Rome. And Italian goodness still links us. Che bello!
