French Cooking With A Mediterranean Flair
While at the Folk School, Dottie and I made friends with Jane and Betty, two women who were taking the French Cooking class. As their final project, they were to invite one person each to attend the dinner culminating all they had learned during the week, and Dottie and I were their invited guests. As you can tell by the menu, we had a wonderful meal of great variety. Neither of us had ever eaten lamb but decided to be adventuresome and give it a try. It was tender, juicy, and delicious. 
The kitchen was transformed into what could have been someone's home in Italy. The tables were set with lovely china, silverware, and linen napkins. Each table was lighted with candles and we looked out over the back garden through the room's many windows. 
We sampled many kinds of wine from red to white to a French version of Anissette, a liquer from Spain. Following our meal, we were serenaded by a duo playing guitar and harmonica. This was certainly different from eating in the dining hall. Bon Appetit!!
