True Italian Cheese




This last summer our family went on a vacation to Italy. My family which consists of 5 members went with my mom's sister and her husband and kids (which would be my Uncle and Cousins). We are close-knit bunch and spend most holidays together. After living in a Villa in Tuscany for 6 days, my Uncle wanted to end the vacation with a truly Italian style meal. Good old fashioned lasagna cooked by Penny and her family. The first picture is the Italian lasagna with all its cheesey goodness. The second is a shot of the group of us and Penny with her two boys and husband.
The meal was magnificent. Gooey, melty cheese, that left you in a food coma lasting several days. My cousins know the meaning of good cheese coming from good ol' Wisconsin--land of the cheeseheads. They have had some of the best, and claim that Wisconsin is home of the best. Needless to say, there was no comparison that night. This cheese was out of this world, the meal, the dish, the night--left memories we will cherish forever. This cheesey masterpiece caused us to go up for seconds, thirds, and for some FOURTHS.
It was a wonderful night, a night that topped off our vacation perfectly.
