#45 Romantic Fifties!

Going Italian

For dinner on Valentine's Day, Don and I had a little fun creating the romantic mood of a 1950's Italian restaurant.  While Puccini played in the background we set the table with a checkered cloth and a stuck a candle in the Chianti bottle.  We whipped up some spaghetti, salad and bread and pondered over which movie to watch.  We agreed on the 1953's "Roman Holiday".  Watching Audrey Hepburn and Gregory Peck, whip around Rome on a Vespa gave me a new idea for celebrating the fifties.  If only I knew someone who owned one!
