Ludo seemed completely unfazed at the prospect of having three extra dinner guests (a quality that I have come to understand is totally her personality). We rolled with it, making extra of some of the vegetarian appetizers and adjusting a few other recipes. Ludo took it in stride, as did all of her friends who began to arrive with bags of groceries filled with pasta, house-cured olives, leeks, and baccalà (salt cod). Bottles of sparkling wine were opened, and we got down to the business of cooking.

I was in heaven darting from dish to dish. Poor Jeff! Having just finished up a couple of meeting-filled days in Northern Italy, his plan had been to watch, enjoy a glass or two of wine, some good music, and lively conversation. Instead, he was quickly pressed into service as the scribe of the event. As I stirred, sliced, sautéed, and rolled polpette (balls) of different types, Jeff was flipping pages back and forth, taking notes on all of the recipes we were preparing. We’re lucky he didn’t accidentally turn to the wrong page.
