Cari Amici,

We are finally experiencing beautiful weather and the chives and wild fennel are thriving in the garden.  This Memorial Day my husband will plant the vegetable garden and I will plant the basil, rosemary, parsley, lemon verbena and all of my other favorite Italian herbs. Our gardens will supply our classes with fresh and delicious produce all summer!

Please check our class schedule and sign up for one or many of our exciting summer offerings.  Remember that we dine al fresco on the patio after every class when the weather permits.  Treat yourself, your family and friends to our pizza oven class on June 24th from 6:30 - 9:30 pm - you will remember the evening for a long time!

Join me July 7th for a walking tour of the markets on Arthur Avenue and enjoy a fabulous multi-course luncheon following the tour.  We're grilling on July 8th, and the Men in the Kitchen return to grill and cook with me the evening of August 5th.

If you love the bounty of the garden, fried zucchini flowers, bruschetta with tomatoes and basil, pesto, pesto, pesto - come and cook with me.

All new corporate teambuilding cooking events at Cucina Casalinga to meet the demands of doing it all on a slimmer budget!

My husband Ralph and I are leaving on May 31st to meet Joe, Sara and our little granddaughters, Abbie and Lucia in Sicily. We are thrilled to have the time to share their Sicilian heritage and visit the birthplace of my father, Salvatore Maraventano and maternal grandparents, Antonio and Giuseppina LoCascio.

Looking forward to cooking with all of you when I return.  Don't hesitate to call Vicki while I am gone and reserve your place in our fantastic summer classes.

Buona Cucina,
