Managed to squeeze in a date with my husband on Sunday. We had a great time with Say Italiano “Parla & Focaccia - the Tiramisu edition”! 😋 🇮🇹 James was in 7th Heaven 😆 we learned to make both focaccia and tiramisu with expert tuition from Lorenzo . We made focaccia on site and got to bring some dough home too. Lorenzo made the most delicious fillings for us to try for lunch! Then we “whipped up” mini tiramisu to bring home and enjoy! This all happened at Eco Village Market Harborough CIC where we could also purchase great wine from Duncan Murray Wines . What wasn’t to love!!?? Oh and did I mention I got a sticker for my one (very useful) word of Italian 🇮🇹 🥄😆. James wasn’t jealous…much!!! 😆😆😆 thanks to Margherita who always puts on a great experience can’t wait for the next one!!
