With The Goddess Of The Dawn

This has been a fantastic weekend. We did not made any plans or scrapped them if there were ever any. We always decided spontaneously what we are going to do and it turned out bombastic in every aspect. I'm going to concentrate here only on the culinary highlights:

Penne with Zucchini and Mascarpone:



The fig season has started. Therefore, we have the Sexiest Salad in the World is back on the table:

The best wine of the weekend was one out of my birthday presents: a delicious Mater Matuta 2000 from Lazio. This is a rare Italian blend of Syrah (85%) and Petit Verdot (15%). Mater Matuta was the Roman goddess of the dawn and the fertility. She has accompanied a delightful weekend.
