Carol and Greg had been talking about their Italian culinary experiences since returning from Europe, so they had us up to the cabin to demonstrate their new-found recipes. Talk about a food coma, what a fantastic meal they put together for us. We also had a chance to meet their two interns who are here from Uruguay and South Africa for the harvest.
