Florence, Italy – lunch in Tuscany – Tuesday

One of my absolutely FAVORITE parts of our whole Italy trip was this lunch – arranged by Accidental Tourist as part of our day-long Tuscany excursion.

Homemade lunch. In a Tuscan private home. In the kitchen/dining area where this sweet woman entertains her own friends and family.

It was magical ….

A couple shots below of the home ….. the steps lead up to the main floor (I think the floor below is where the same company hosts cooking classes)

I couldn’t even tell you all the different dishes we were served ….

But we started out … with my favorite: bell peppers

Honestly one of my favorite meals EVER.

Thus concludes our Tuscany excursion. It was sad to head back home. …. although ‘home’ that night was a b&b less than a block away from the Duomo in Florence so we survived ..
