So, you're going to think all we do is eat!
Saturday afternoon Tom and I were invited over to the Mamie and Ray Crawford’s for a cooking party. We made an eight course Italian meal. Mamie, an expert cook, had made some of the food ahead of time. The biscotti was already made we just formed it, cut it and baked it. The meat…
