Thanks  to all who came to the banquet Saturday, Oct. 22, and special thanks to Donna Sere and Don Aldo for allowing me to use the Villa at Rocca Sorrentina. What a lovely setting for a feast, and feast we did!  We followed our meal with a challenging game of Faro.  Thankfully my cooking skill is better than my gaming skill....    

The theme: Harvest Festival Buffet

I prepared an assortment of breakfast foods, seafood, breads, and main dishes of various meats, plus- desserts!  (Thanks to all the QH chickens and goats who contributed in one way or another to this feast! Thanks too to the owners of lakes and streams who provided the catches of the day! I'm getting fond of sitting by the dock of the bay, watching the tide... well you know...) 

Guests had their choice of QH wine, made from the finest harvests of my vineyard, plus some purchased mead and rence beer.  Who didn't enjoy drinking from that horn?  Come on now, admit it. I saw you.

Here are some photos .  Some I took and some from a couple shutterbug helpers. Merci!
I will also post these and more on the Rocca Sorrentina flickr site.   https://www.flickr.com/groups/2636644@N25/   under the allbum  cqvLunaqatqv  or  https://www.flickr.com/photos/unalunaqat/albums/72157675550432436

Merci beaucoup!

Marcel?  Oh mais non, Duchess.  He and Clara will do you no harm. They are quite friendly.
