The Celebrities
Preparing for New Year’s Eve, I introduce our family’s three guests of honor :
Le lenticchie (assurance of prosperity in the New Year)
L’olio novello (the new season extra virgin olive oil), one I’ve not before tried, organic, from the Lazio region’s Sabina
Il panettone, without which the celebrations would not be complete. Made this morning by Pasticceria Dolci Desideri (“Sweet Desires”)
Add beloved family, a cloudless night for fireworks and happy festivities result !
