Christmas Eve: Our guests were moved with all the cooking that I did. To me it is always a pleasure to see my family and or guests you know eat and eat. It makes me feel sooo happy to see happy faces after all the food. I grew up in the slopes of Mt. Kenya and the way food was presented was really not a great affair. After a hard day working the land, picking coffee in the rain carrying 40 kilos of potatoes to sell in the nearest market, food was something to keep you going.
7 years ago I moved to Italy after I got married and everything changed. Now, food to me is something I love to dedicate time to. Then, with mothers of my husbands friends I quickly learn't the basics of pasta making, baking italian simple cakes which after working on can be made into italian pieces of art.
I wanted to make my Christmas Eve a special one. So I cooked and at the end around 1 in the night I could see the faces of my guests. What a wonderful evening we put together.
I missed Christmas eve at the slopes.
I just wanted to share with you some of the food that we had, maybe you could try that for new year.
