Last Friday my younger sister Chantel got married to the love of her life, Mike! In between the ceremony and the reception Mike's Father hosted a luncheon... Now when we heard 'luncheon' everyone assumed a nice little get together with a little something to hold off our hunger until the reception... We were wrong...
(my brother Jimmy, his wife Annie, my sister Helena, and her husband Kurt)
Mike's father is Italian and wanted to give everyone a true Italian meal! He decided the best way to accomplish his goal was to have an authentic Italian restaurant cater for the event (and it really was an event!)
(My Dad and his wife JoAnn)
The meal went like this,
5 appetizers, 2 first course meals, 3 main course meals, and 2 deserts (I would like to point out that this meal was not an 'either or' it was everyone gets it all and is expected to eat it too!)
(my brother David, Amber and Dave)
The lunch had around forty people... It was a lot of fun! A little more then expected (all that food!) but fun never the less : )
I think we still have a box of leftovers somewhere...
(the cute couple! Mike and my sister Chantel)
We had to get them aprons from the kitchen so nothing would get on their wedding attire!

Awww memories. The Italians do know how to eat! When I was in Italy we had a chef for all us study abroad students and he would always do seevral courses. appetizer course, Veggie course, pasta course, meat course, dessert...that was the way to eat!!! What was you favorite dish out of all of that?
Ah, it was good. They had some pretty good lasagna and breaded veal too. It was difficult to walk afterward.
