Like going home...

My mom's friend Therese is in town, and we spent the afternoon in my mom's kitchen, making amazing Italian food. It reminded me of hanging out in the kitchens of all of my Italian friends' mothers. We made red sauce with pork, turkey meatballs, and handmade gnocchi with ricotta cheese instead of potato (makes them less mushy). I'm not going to share any recipes on this blog, since they belong to Therese and her family, but I may ask her permission to share the gnocchi recipe at some point, because it was freaking incredible.

The best part? We made so much food that I don't have to cook dinner tonight!
