They had a huge bottle of Chianti that they had been waited to share (even with all of us, it took awhile to finish). Dinner was absolutely amazing: minestrone soup, ravioli, eggplant parmesan, cheese, and I'm sure other things I'm forgetting (this is the problem with trying to do a blog entry too long after the fact).
It was a wonderful evening.
Tim did share his Italian cookbook, but that's a secret and can't be shared on the blog. Sorry.
